Alice James Quotes

Women wish to be loved without a why or a wherefore; not because they are pretty, or good, or well-bred, or graceful, or intelligent, but because they are themselves.

You are always special. Nothing can change that.

No one has ever loved anyone the way everyone wants to be loved.

My mum thinks I'm amazing at everything. That unconditional love is just the most precious thing you can have.

We are the world. We are the people and we deserve better not because we're worth it but because no worth can be put on the incalculable, on the infinite, on life.

There are too many mediocre things in life to deal with. Love shouldn't be one of them. Anything less than extraordinary is a waste of my time.

No one appreciates the very special genius of your conversation as the dog does.

It may be possible to gild pure gold, but who can make his mother more beautiful?

Anything in any way beautiful derives its beauty from itself and asks nothing beyond itself. Praise is no part of it, for nothing is made worse or better by praise.

I like all my children, even the squat and ugly ones.

You are loved just for being who you are, just for existing. You don't have to do anything to earn it. Your shortcomings, your lack of self-esteem, physical perfection, or social and economic success - none of that matters. No one can take this love away from you, and it will always be here.

There's no prerequisites to worthiness. You're born worthy, and I think that's a message a lot of women need to hear.

My favorite thing about motherhood is the outpouring of love that is non-judgmental and beautiful. My daughter just makes me happy, and she motivates me to be a kid again.

I know I'm wonderfully made, and nobody can take that away from me. So regardless of what I show you or expose to you, you don't have any bearing on my worth and what I mean.

My mom once told me that she wants to be born as my girlfriend in the next birth because she sees me how I am, I am extremely expressive, and she loves me for that.

I can't for the life of me - and I've tried - love someone like I love my grandmother, my sister and my mom.

One's real worth is never a quantifiable thing.

Just being born makes you worthy enough to be here

I think that people have this unrealistic expectation that people are just supposed to love them. I'm sorry to break it you, but ain't nobody supposed to do nothing.

It's very Western to idealize a kind of love that does not come with any expectations, that still permits both the giver and recipient to be completely free.

Brother-sister love is the purest form of emotional love, like parents' love for their children. In school and college, brothers are there to protect us from all harm. It's an unconditional love.

You know a dog loves you for who you are; they don't know if you're a soccer player or not. Sometimes people treat you good because you're a footballer or because you're famous, but a dog doesn't know it.

Kids love you unconditionally.

Anyone I'm with has to love my son just as much as they love me, if not more, because I don't play any games with King.

Real love is unconditional.
