~ The most wonderful of all things in life, I believe, is the discovery of another human being with whom one's relationship has a glowing depth, beauty, and joy as the years increase. This inner progressiveness of love between two human beings is a most marvelous thing, it cannot be found by looking for it or by passionately wishing for it. It is a sort of Divine accident. ~
~ A joyful heart is the inevitable result of a heart burning with love. ~
~ By the accident of fortune a man may rule the world for a time, but by virtue of love and kindness he may rule the world forever. ~
~ God doesn't look at how much we do, but with how much love we do it. ~
~ He who is filled with love is filled with God himself. ~
~ I believe every person is created as the steward of his or her destiny with great power for a specific purpose to share with others, through service, a reverence for life in a spirit of love. ~
~ Love cannot endure indifference. It needs to be wanted. Like a lamp, it needs to be fed out of the oil of another's heart, or its flame burns low.
~
~ We find rest in those we love, and we provide a resting place in ourselves for those who love us.
~
~ The beginning of love is to let those we love be perfectly themselves, and not to twist them to fit our own image. Otherwise we love only the reflection of ourselves we find in them. ~
~
Love is not blind - it sees more, not less. But because it sees more, it is willing to see less ~
~
Love is a canvas furnished by nature and embroidered by imagination. ~
~ At the touch of love, everyone becomes a poet. ~
