Quotations
Love
I have loved the stars too fondly to be fearful of the night.
-Sarah Williams

-Jesus Christ
Love sought is good, but given unsought, is better.
-William Shakespeare
Love is possible only step by step. If one loves himself, then only can he love
people around him and only if he loves people around him, can he fall in love
with the entire mankind... But some people directly fall in love with stones and
animals. Difficult to understand, as to who are they trying to deceive?
-Deep Trivedi
It is better to be hated for what you are than to be loved for what you are not.

Love is not an emotion. It is your very existence.
