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 is a great thing, greatest of all goods, because it alone renders light every burden and bears equally all that is unequal.
-Jesus Christ
Who could refrain that had a heart to love and in that heart courage to make love known?
-William Shakespeare
Whatever is done for love always occurs beyond good and evil.
-Friedrich Nietzsche
Love does not alter the beloved, it alters itself.
-Søren Kierkegaard
If you enter this world knowing you are loved and you leave this world knowing the same, then everything that happens in between can be dealt with.
-Michael Jackson
The most painful thing is losing yourself in the process of loving someone too much, and forgetting that you are special too.
-Ernest Hemingway
"Men Without Women"
You love your family, but not your neighbor. You love your parents, but not others’ parents. You love your religion, but not all religions. You love your country, but not all countries. This is not true love, it is limited love. Transformation of limited love into divine love is the goal of spirituality.
-A Spiritual Leader "Mata Amritanandamayi"
Absence from whom we love is worse than death.
-William Cowper
The way of love is as true as the way of knowledge. All paths ultimately lead to the same Truth. But as long as God keeps the feeling of ego in us, it is easier to follow the path of love.
-Ramakrishna Paramahamsa "Ramakrishna Paramahamsa"
