Quotations

Love: A temporary insanity curable by marriage
-Ambrose Bierce
All because of love, when it arrived my temporal life from then on changed to eternal.
-Rumi "Jalaluddin Rumi"
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"
Love you will find only where you may show yourself weak without provoking strength.
-Theodor W. Adorno
