And all people live, not by reason of any care they have for themselves, but by the love for them that is in other people.
-Leo Tolstoy
Quotations
Love
Love you will find only where you may show yourself weak without provoking strength.
-Theodor W. Adorno
Love is the power to see similarity in the dissimilar.
-Theodor W. Adorno
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
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
Love cannot tolerate distance and hatred cannot tolerate nearness.
-Sri Sri Ravi Shankar
When I was in the military they gave me a medal for killing two men and a discharge for loving one.
-Leonard Matlovich "Epitaph of Leonard. P. Matlovich, 1988"
Love sought is good, but given unsought, is better.
-William Shakespeare
You can as easily love without trusting as you can hug without embracing.
-Robert Brault
First lose yourself, then only you find Him. The Beloved is not separate from you; just turn your face within.
-Shah Abdul Karim "Shah Abdul Karim"
