13 Pride Quotes About Love

by Chelsey Grasso

Love is an unbreakable force, and these 13 Pride quotes about love demonstrate just how strong it is. Love is love, and it is not the gender of the people that define it. If there is one thing these gorgeous quotes make clear, it is that love knows no boundaries.

No matter how dark or evil the world may seem at any given time (and especially as of late), it is so vital to remember that love will always conquer hate. You can't fight hate with hate, you can only overcome it with love. It may sound cheesy, but sometimes the greatest truths rest within the the most recited proverbs. In this case, I think that is without a doubt true.

With Pride month in full swing, this is the perfect time to read up on what the greats have had to say about love in the past. Read these quotes today, read them tomorrow, and read them every day that follows. There is so much strength in loving one another, and I don't think there is a single thing that is more important to ingrain into your memory than that. Hate and intolerance will only be defeated once we have conquered humanity with love.
