Quotations
Love
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
If we lose all of our wealth and are only left with love then, indeed, we shall never be poor.
-Stephen Richards

-André Gide

If you eat with love that is good; what you just gulp down like anything, that will kill you.
-Kirpal Singh "Sant Kirpal Singh"
Love sought is good, but given unsought, is better.

If you wish to be loved, show more of your faults than your virtues.
