Love is a defining characteristic of God. Therefore when Jesus was on the earth, He mentioned it many times.
Many of the parables told by Jesus talk about love. In the Parable of the Sheep and the Goats (Matthew 25:31-46), Jesus explains how we should give our love to others in the same way we would to God. The Parable of the Good Samaritan (Luke 10:30-37) explains that people should love everyone and not only those who deserve love or those that "should be loved". The Parable of the Lost Coin (Luke 15:8-10) shows that God values everyone highly and desires to be with everyone. Of all of the parables, Jesus makes God's love for us most clear in the Parable of the Prodigal Son (Matthew 15:11:32).
In Matthew 22:37-38, Jesus gives us the command to love one another. This is repeated in John 15:9-17. In Matthew 10:37-39, Jesus says that we must love Him more than anything else. These are just a few of the other places. Love is mentioned much in John 13-15.
My favorite passage for love in The Bible is Romans 12:9-21. This passage explains how we should love one another. This was written by Paul and not said by Jesus, but because it is in the Bible it is the Word of God, for it is written, "In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God (John 1:1)." A good way to find other passages about love is to use a Bible with a concordance. There are many excellent scriptures.
P.S. I underlined all of the references that I made to scriptures about love.
