"What you feel only matters to you. It's what you do to the people you love. That's what matters. That's the only thing that counts."
-Stephen in The Last Kiss
Looking at this quote, does it mean that you have to do anything to prove to those you love that you really love them?

No I think what the quote is saying is that you may feel so much for the special person you love but they cannot feel what you are feeling. The only way they will know is how you act on those feelings. An outward showing of affection, and this can come in any form. Whether in how gentle and loving you treat them or in doing something special for them. If you love someone but do not show that person how much you care then how will they know? It is not a matter of proving your love....just showing it.

I think we should do everything in the name of love, but not just for those people that we love. The quote states that what is important is how you treat the people that you love. If you extend that to all people, you will be a much more kind and caring person.
The quote is definitely correct for how we all need to act towards the people that we love. If they see our love in our actions, they will always know how we feel about them.
We need to extend that to all people and we will have a great world.
Take care,
Troy

Yes I think that we should do everything in the name of Love because we as humans respond in many different ways including anger hurt sorrow and happiness and joy . If you really think about every emotion you share is a result of some type of love, you get angry because of a decision that someone make because you want the best for them because you care and caring always is led by feelings of love. Everyone shows compassion one way or another no matter if it is motherly love of friendship or even ex- boyfriend love its still love we cant escape it its always there so why fight it?

Just to answer the initial Q directly, "I think we should love in the name of, and face of, Everything."

No. I can do endless nice things for the woman I love and still feel upset or depressed inside in ways that have nothing to do with her. I simply cannot believe that my feelings don't count.

Why do you have to prove it? It's something that YOU feel inside, and only you can know the depth....acts will not prove anything, other than you can act.

If you ave to think so much about it, maybe it isn't love. Love washes over you, controls you, and that is all the proof needed.

If this love is real love you don't have to do EVERYTHING as everything is vaste and might be painful. Love is simple if it's real and abusive if it is wrongly motivated.

You don't do anything... it's the true love that makes you do. It is a weakness, not strength!!
