3. Love is when you take away the feeling, the passion, and the romance in a relationship and find out that you still care for that person.

爱情是，当你拿走了这份感情的时候，在你们的关系中依然有着的那种激情和浪漫，会发现你还在关心着这个人。

4. A sad thing in life is, you meet someone who means a lot to you, only to find out in the end that it was never meant to be, and you just have to let go.

即使给他/她你全部的爱，也绝不能保证他们也会把爱你。不要指望爱的回报；只有等待爱在他/她人的心里逐渐成长。如果它没有在那些人心里成长，至少你应该满足，它已在你心里成长了。

9. There are things you would love to hear that you would never hear from the person whom you would like to hear them from; but do not be so deaf as not to hear it from the one who says it from his heart.

有些事情尽管你喜欢听到，可是你永远也不会在你所想听到的人那里听到的这些事情；但也不要充耳不闻，以致听不到一个人，他/她发自内心所讲的话。

10. Never say goodbye if you still want to try. Never give up if you still feel you can go on. Never say you do not love a person anymore if you cannot let go.

11. Love comes to those who still hope although they have been disappointed, to those who still believe although they have been betrayed, to those who still love although they have been hurt before.

爱情属于那些尽管已经感到失望，但仍然存在希望的人；属于那些尽管已被背叛，但仍然有信念的人；属于那些受过伤害，但仍然有爱心的人。

12. It takes only a minute to get a crush on someone, an hour to like someone, and a day to love someone. But it takes a lifetime to forget someone.

一分钟，就可迷上一个人，一小时，就可喜欢上一个人，一天，就可爱上一个人。但是，需要一辈子才能忘记一个人。
