Love
Quotes
<< Prev Next >>
Love is not a fire to be shut up in a soul. Everything betrays us: voice, silence, eyes; half-covered fires burn all the brighter
None love, but they who wish to love
Love one another, but make not a bond of love: let it rather be a moving sea between the shores of your souls
If you love somebody, let them go, for if they return, they were always yours. And if they don't, they never were

Love is the only freedom in the world because it so elevates the spirit that the laws of humanity and the phenomena of nature do not alter its course
Love has the power that dispels death; charm that conquers the enemy
Ever has it been that love knows not its own depth until the hour of separation
Life is short and we have never too much time for gladdening the hearts of those who are travelling the dark journey with us. Oh be swift to love, make haste to be kind
The more a man loves, the more he suffers. The sum of possible grief for each soul is in proportion to its degree of perfection
