I have to say, I'm very happy to see that Love Yourself Week is coming up and I'm ready to celebrate with some great love quotes. Why? Because it's easy to love others and write quotes about how that feels, but we seem to have a much harder time loving ourselves. So here are 14 great love quotes to remind us that we deserve our own love as much as the next person. 1.
