Leo Tolstoy

Human science fragments everything in order to understand it, kills everything in order to examine it.

There is something in the human spirit that will survive and prevail, there is a tiny and brilliant light burning in the heart of man that will not go out no matter how dark the world becomes.

Wrong does not cease to be wrong because the majority share in it.

He stepped down, avoiding any long look at her as one avoids long looks at the sun, but seeing her as one sees the sun, without looking.

Anything is better than lies and deceit!

Boredom: the desire for desires.

I miss the thought of a forever, you and me. But all you’re missing is my body.

Love is the absence of judgment.

Love is louder than the pressure to be perfect.

Love is friendship that has caught fire. It is quiet understanding, mutual confidence, sharing and forgiving. It is loyalty thru good times and bad. It settles for less than perfection and makes allowances for human weaknesses. Love is content with the present; it hopes for the future and it doesn’t brood over the past. It is the day-in and out chronicles of irritations, problems, compromises, small disappointments, big victories and common goals. If you have love in your life, it can make up for a great many things that you lack. If you don’t have it, no matter what else is there, it isn’t enough.

I believe we’re all in denial about the people we love.

I’m standing in the ashes of who I used to be.

Don’t forget me, don’t forget me. I wouldn’t leave you if you’d let me.

Oh, we’ll be looking for sunlight, or the headlights, ’til our wide eyes burn blind.

I wanted movement and not a calm course of existence. I wanted excitement and danger and the chance to sacrifice myself for my love.

Jealousy, jealousy, jealousy, jealousy get the best of me.

I have simply found a way of loving through whatever absences or dejections have fallen like tree branches in my path.

If you love someone set them free. If they come back, they’re yours; if they don’t, they never were.

We need to make love great again because black lives do matter, because all lives do matter.

Love is that condition in which the happiness of another person is essential to your own.

There is no love without forgiveness, and there is no forgiveness without love.
