People will ask me: Don’t you believe in God? No, I don’t. I believe in two things above all: Nature and Love. Nature is all-powerful. Love is how I understand the good. It might have been nice to believe in God, often defined as all-powerful and good, but combining the two like that has always posed too much of a contradiction for my poor mind to believe in.
Justice that love gives is a surrender; justice that law gives is a punishment.
-Mahatma Gandhi
It is better to be hated for what you are than to be loved for what you are not.
-André Gide
"Autumn Leaves"
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
When you know love then that is the time you forget hate.
-Stephen Richards
Love is the only way to grasp another human being in the innermost core of his personality.
-Viktor Frankl
Love me or hate me, both are in my favour… If you love me, I’ll always be in your heart… If you hate me, I’ll always be in your mind.
The blossom of love will make the air fragrant; the river of love will murmur along the valleys; and every bird, beast and child will sing the song of love.
