If your heart is a volcano, how shall you expect flowers to bloom?
To ease another's heartache is to forget one's own
The head best leaves to the heart what the heart alone divines
The heart is forever inexperienced
It is well for the heart to be naive and the mind not to be
The heart has its reasons of which reason knows nothing
It is always a poor way of reading the hearts of others to try to conceal our own
The mouth obeys poorly when the heart murmurs
No emperor has the power to dictate to the heart
It is not flesh and blood but the heart which makes us fathers and sons
