I’m going to be extremely real with y’all. I’m a 37-year-old who watches Twilight as my regular comfort movie. The series by Stephenie Meyer came out during a time of my life when I was really struggling and now I’m just forever bonded with them.
While I can admit it’s not the finest literature out there, it is iconic and these Twilight love quotes are part of the reason for that.
The Twilight saga follows Isabella Swan (but she goes by Bella) after she moves to the small town of Forks, Washington to live with her dad, Charlie Swan (Billy Burke). She meets a high school classmate and vampire, Edward Cullen, who she falls in love with quickly.
There’s not just the love story of Bella (Kristen Stewart) and Edward (Robert Pattinson), but there are plenty of love stories among the other characters as well.
Twilight Love Quotes

2. “I’ll be back so soon you won’t have time to miss me. Look after my heart–I’ve left it with you.” – Edward, Eclipse
This Twilight love quote actually comes in the form of a written note that Edwards leaves Bella.
3. “You wouldn’t have to change for me, Bella. I’m in love with you, and I want you to pick me instead of him.” – Jacob Black (Taylor Lautner), Eclipse

5. “My life was an unending, unchanging midnight. It must, by necessity, always be midnight for me. So how was it possible that the sun was rising now, in the middle of my midnight?” – Edward, Midnight Sun
Midnight Sun, a retelling of Twilight from Edward’s perspective, allows us to get inside his head.
6. “And so the lion fell in love with the lamb…” he murmured. I looked away, hiding my eyes as I thrilled to the word.
“What a stupid lamb,” I sighed.

Another of the more well-known quotes from the Twilight franchise for sure.
7. “Now you know. No one’s ever loved anyone as much as I love you..” – Bella, Breaking Dawn
8. “Before you, Bella, my life was like a moonless night. Very dark, but there were stars, points of light and reason. …And then you shot across my sky like a meteor. Suddenly everything was on fire; there was brilliancy, there was beauty. When you were gone, when the meteor had fallen over the horizon, everything went black. Nothing had changed, but my eyes were blinded by the light. I couldn’t see the stars anymore. And there was no more reason, for anything.” – Edward, New Moon

10. “It’s an extraordinary thing to meet someone who you can bare your soul to and accept you for what you are. I’ve been waiting, for what seems like a very long time, to get beyond what I am. With Bella I feel like I can finally begin. So I’d like to propose a toast to my beautiful bride. No measure of time with you will be long enough. But let’s start with forever” – Edward, Breaking Dawn
This epic quote is said by Edward in Breaking Dawn during their wedding.
11. “Isn’t it supposed to be like this?” He smiled. “The glory of first love, and all that. It’s incredible, isn’t it, the difference between reading about something, seeing it in the pictures, and experiencing it?”
“Very different,” I agreed. “More forceful than I’d imagined.” – Edward and Bella, Twilight
12. “I love you. You’re my only reason to stay alive… if that’s what I am.” – Edward, New Moon

“As long as you want me,” he assured me.
“I’ll always want you,” I warned him. “Forever.” – Bella and Edward, Twilight
14. “Surely it was a good way to die, In the place of someone else, Someone I loved.” – Bella, Twilight
15. “Isabella.” He pronounced my full name carefully, then playfully ruffled my hair with his free hand. A shock ran through my body at his casual touch. “Bella, I couldn’t live with myself if I ever hurt you. You don’t know how it’s tortured me.” He looked down, ashamed again. “The thought of you, still, white, cold . . . to never see you blush scarlet again, to never see that flash of intuition in your eyes when you see through my pretenses . . . it would be unendurable.” he lifted his glorious, agonized eyes to mine. “You are the most important thing to me now. The most important thing to me ever.” – Edward, Twilight
16. “I was in love with the idea of love.” – Rosalie Hale, Eclipse
While not all of the memorable quotes are happy, this one is definitely iconic. This quote comes as Rosalie recounts her vampire origin story to Bella while warning her that immortality is not something she would choose for herself.
17. “It’s possible to love more than one person at a time.” – Jacob, Eclipse
While there were times this felt a bit like a love triangle, let’s be real – Jacob was a little delusional.
18. “One thing I truly knew – knew it in the pit of my stomach, in the center of my bones, knew it from the crown of my head to the soles of my feet, knew it deep in my empty chest – was how love gave someone the power to break you.” – Bella, New Moon
19. “Hold on tight spider monkey” – Edward, Twilight
Okay, it’s not exactly a love quote, but if you can love someone after they say this to you with a straight face then that’s real.
