Quotations
Love
Love feels no burden, values no labours, would like to do more than it can do, without excusing itself with impossibility, because it believes that it may and can do all things.
-Jesus Christ
It is best to love wisely, no doubt: but to love foolishly is better than not to be able to love at all.
-William Thackeray
What we have once enjoyed we can never lose. All that we love deeply becomes a part of us.
-Helen Keller
Stop waiting for the right person to come into your life. Be the right person to come to someone’s life.
-Leo Babauta
Love watches, and sleeping, slumbers not. When fatigued it does not become tired; when pressed it does not work through constraint; when threatened it is not disturbed; but like a lively flame and a burning torch, it mounts upwards, and securely overcomes all opposition.
-Jesus Christ
Love must be one and two at the same time.
-Rabindranath Tagore
Men always want to be a woman's first love - women like to be a man's last romance.
-Oscar Wilde
People will ask me: Don’t you believe in God? No, I don’t. I believe in two things above all: Nature and Love. Nature is all-powerful. Love is how I understand the good. It might have been nice to believe in God, often defined as all-powerful and good, but combining the two like that has always posed too much of a contradiction for my poor mind to believe in.
-C. George Boeree "C. George Boeree"
If you love somebody, let them go, for if they return, they were always yours. If they don't, they never were.
-Khalil Gibran
