I'm really interested in trying to tell stories about women that don't involve romantic components. That's so much a part of the way we feel about female characters and their needs that it feels like it's built in - but I'd like to find a way that it's not. There are so many more stories than that.
— Greta Gerwig
For me, the romantic comedies I love are the ones that pay homage to the genre, but also find their ways to twist it and tweak it.

— Glenn Beck

The most real thing of all, the only thing any of us wants, is to matter to somebody. To feel and share love, even on a friendship level or as deep as a romantic one. Who doesn't want that?
— Gavin Creel
The chance to play a romantic character who kisses somebody onscreen was one of the elements that made me want to do 'The Stand.' The more you can do, the better, and I've been known as a character actor.
— Gary Sinise

— Gary Paulsen
Ooh, it's too embarrassing to share my innermost romantic secrets - although I have written Danielle the odd poem. If anything they are more comedic than romantic. They used to be well-received but that was before she started studying Shakespeare at drama college. Now I feel so inept.
— Gary Lineker
I'm not really a fan of Valentine's Day. I think it can be romantic doing nothing on Valentine's Day. It's more romantic than being given a big bunch of flowers that everyone else is doing.
— Gabriella Wilde
I'm a romantic guy.
— Fred Durst
I don't like high concept movies very much, and the kind of scripts that I would occasionally get offered tended to be really high concept comedies or romantic comedies. I just don't like it. I like much more realistic movies with actual psychology and behavior in them.
— Greg Mottola

I've never believed in or understood romantic love. Love at first sight was always a complete joke to me.
— Glennon Doyle Melton
Hip hop is the strongest form of protest there is, and it doesn't always have to be a violent protest. It can be romantic, also. When you listen to Kanye West's 'Street Lights' for example, there's romance, there's pain - you feel the essence. I get the same thing from Drake and 2 Chainz.
— Giuseppe Zanotti
I've always been sort of addicted to genre-jumping. I've never been in the mood to do the same thing I did last time. Hence, me going from 'Big Love' to romantic comedy, to period film... I can't sit still.
A friend of mine wrote a script, a feminist romantic comedy. She had a feminist scholar consult on it. My friend said, 'Oh, my friend Gillian read it and really loved it.' She goes, 'Gillian Jacobs, you mean: Britta Perry, feminist icon?'
Romance is everything.
— Gertrude Stein

— George Herman

— Gene Luen Yang
I am a romantic at heart.
— Gautham Menon
Television offered me the opportunity to do new things; I had written a lot of scripts other than scary movies. I had actually written some romantic comedies and stuff that I really wanted to try my hand at, and nobody would let me do that. Television allowed me to do anything I wanted.
— Gary Sherman
I don't think Hollywood knows what to do with me. I would imagine that when it comes to romantic comedies, my name would be pretty low down on the list.
— Gary Oldman
I never got the opportunity to be romantic or feel romantic with anyone.
— Gary Coleman
I love you more than my own skin.
— Frida Kahlo

— Greg Gutfeld
A lot of romantic comedies are just light romantic dramas, or the comedy comes off second-best.
— Graeme Simsion
I was married when I was 17. I knew nothing. I was full of romance.
— Gloria Swanson
I don't think any of the early Romantic composers knew how to write for the piano... The music of that era is full of empty theatrical gestures, full of exhibitionism, and it has a worldly, hedonistic quality that simply turns me off.
— Glenn Gould
There is nothing quixotic or romantic in wanting to change the world. It is possible. It is the age-old vocation of all humanity.
— Gioconda Belli
There are so many romantic comedies made, but very few dramas or love stories. And with a love story, you have to take time to develop three-dimensional characters.
— Gina Prince-Bythewood
Lidia Bastianich, sorry, but kind of boring. I mean, I love Lidia, but you can fall asleep watching her. And Mario Batali? I love Mario to death... but he's not romantic or sensual. Those are the things I bring to the table.
— Giada De Laurentiis
I was a late starter on the romantic front. I didn't start dating until I was in my 30s.

Women love romance, but they're not as romantic as men.

— Gemma Jones
Shah Rukh is very romantic in real life, too.
— Gauri Khan
I'm a teller of stories. I put bloody skins on my back and dance around the fire, and I say what the hunt was like. It's not erudite; it's not intellectual. I sail, run dogs, ride horses, play professional poker, and tell stories about the stuff I've been through. And I'm still a romantic; I still want Bambi to make it out of the fire.
We have got too many kids around the house to have a romantic meal at home. But Danielle is a fantastic cook. She does a brilliant lasagne, great roasts and a great chilli dish. She knows the way to my heart.
The desire for romantic love in marriage is deeply rooted in our psychological makeup.
— Gary Chapman
In terms of romantic films, all-time romantic films, I really like 'Gone With the Wind.' And I realize I sound so cliched saying that, but there's something so absolutely romantic about it.
— Freida Pinto
