- When your heart already knew true love, its automatic. You will view things positively- the world, the problems, the people... And so much more.
- Ang pag-ibig ay mapagtiwala. Hindi natural na masama ang isang tao. Loves believes all things. Hindi tayo nag-iisip agad na manghusga ng masama sa atin. In love, we always give the benefit of the doubt. We always believe at the best of others and not their worst.
- Love always trusts. "This does not mean gullibility; it does mean that love is not suspicious and doubting of the other person's character and motives without good reason, even if his actions offended you

- Love is always ready to allow for extenuating circumstances, to give the other person the benefit of the doubt, to believe the best about people.

- Love doesn't broadcast the problems of others. Love doesn't run down others with jokes, sarcasm or put-downs. Love defends the character of the other person as much as possible within the limits of truth. Love won't lie about weakness, but neither will ot deliberately expose and emphasize them. Love protects.

- Love rejoices with the truth. Love gets excited when it hears of spirital victories.

- Truth and love go together like hand in glove. Truth must make our love discriminating, and love must make our truth compassionate and forgiving.

- Love doesn't keep a tally of wrongs and bear a grudge until every one is paid for. It doesn't try to gain the upper hand by reminding the other person of past wrongs. Love forgives.

- Love is not provoked. Love is not given to emotional outbursts, is not exasperated by petty annoyances, and refuses to let someone else get under one's skin.

- Love does not talk too much but listens as well. Love does not insist on its own way. It is always willing to defer to others.

- Love has good manners. It is courteous, polite, sensitive to the feelings of others and always uses tact.

- But love isn't trying to build up "me"; love is trying to build up the other person. Love is humble. The humble and loving person is aware that everything he has is an undeserved gift from God.

- Love does not parade itself. It does not brag. If you know what love is, we won't brag what we have na wala na wala naman sa iba. Parang sa kapwa natin, hindi natin dapat sila iniinggit sa kung anong meron tayo and we should not show-off that we're better than they are.
- Love is not an egotistical blowhard. Love is not big-headed but big-hearted. This means the more lovinf you become, the less boasting you need to do.

- Everyone says love hurts, but that isn't true. Loneliness hurts. Rejection hurts. Losing someone hurts. Envy hurts. Everyone gets these things confused with love, but in reality, love is the only thing in this world that covers up all pain and makes someone wonderful again.
- Love is the only thing in this world that does not hurt

- Genuine love includes abhorrence of evil, as well as commitment to good. In other words, genuine love is not a passive, effeminate (unmanly) quality that sugarcoats evil, but rather an active, righteous quality that opposes evil.

- Kapag nagmamahal tayo, walang rason kundi, ang mahal natin ang isang tao dahil gusto at kailangan natin silang mahalin. Walang mas tunay na pagmamahal sa "kasi gusto mo lang" o sa "kasi kailangan mo lang".
The wanting and needing will always go together when it comes to sincerely loving someone.
- Genuine love does not say one thing and then act another way. Agape love is not to be used like a mask on a stage in order to pretend that we are someone that we are not.
