Ariana Grande and Pete Davidson's relationship is decorated with more red flags than the country of Switzerland. It pains me to even so much as slightly shade Ariana Grande, the perfectly ponytailed pop star with charisma and integrity for days, but consider her whirlwind courtship with SNL's Davidson already includes tattoos, an engagement, and a shared home. It's a lot — fast. In the spirit of optimism — I always get inexplicably optimistic in the summertime — here is a collection of Ariana Grande quotes about love, because goddamnit, this relationship must last.

The 24-year-old singer is beloved by fans for her incredible music and vulnerable communication, so it's no surprise that even beyond her lyrics, Grande has some superb quotes about the four-letter word with so many facets. A scroll through Grande's Twitter shows just how much love the singer is willing to share — it's littered with love in the form of Tweets reading "i love u more" or "i love u sm hi & thank u i love u bye," to both adorable fans and celebrity collaborators. So in the spirit of love, life, and Ariana Grande, here are her very best quotes on love.
