This quote was taken from the second book of the Dragonlance chronicles (if you liked Lord of the Rings trilogy, read these. You WON'T be dissapointed).
It is spoken by Tanis (a half-elf).
"'If we deny love that is given to us, if we refuse to give love because we fear the pain of loss, then our lives will be empty, our loss greater."
Pretty nice, huh?
