Quotations
Heart
The sun illuminates only the eye of the man, but shines into the eye and the heart of the child
-Ralph Waldo Emerson "Ralph Waldo Emerson"

If your heart is a volcano, how shall you expect flowers to bloom?
-Khalil Gibran "Kahlil Gibran"
He who loves me is made pure; his heart melts in joy. He rises to transcendental consciousness by the rousing of his higher emotional nature. Tears of joy flow from his eyes, his hair stands on end, his heart melts in love. The bliss in that state is so intense that, forgetful of himself and his surroundings, he sometimes weeps profusely, or laughs, or sings, or dances; such a devotee is a purifying influence upon the whole universe.
-Srimad Bhagavad Gita "Srimad Bhagavatam 11.8"
The very strength that protects the heart from injury is the strength that prevents the heart from enlarging to its intended greatness within. The song of the voice is sweet, but the song of the heart is the pure voice of heaven.
-Kahlil Gibran "Kahlil Gibran"
The best gifts come from the heart, not the store.
