Quotations
Love
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.
-C. George Boeree "C. George Boeree"
When you love someone, you want to see them always happy and you want them to have the best.
-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"
If you have only one smile in you, give it to the people you love.
-Maya Angelou
Love and compassion are necessities, not luxuries. Without them humanity cannot survive.
-Dalai Lama
Love is composed of a single soul inhabiting two bodies.
-Aristotle
No one is born hating another person because of the color of his skin, or his background, or his religion. People must learn to hate, and if they can learn to hate, they can be taught to love, for love comes more naturally to the human heart than it’s opposite.
-Nelson Mandela
What is love? Two souls and one flesh; Friendship? Two bodies and one soul.
-Joseph Roux
...when I think of you it's with tears, because no one else has such delicate hands that can reach into my soul and calm my fears...
