Who, being loved, is poor?
The books that the world calls immoral are the books that show the world its own shame.
Always forgive your enemies; nothing annoys them so much.
Be yourself; everyone else is already taken.
Anyone who lives within their means suffers from a lack of imagination.
Truth, in matters of religion, is simply the opinion that has survived.
Every saint has a past, and every sinner has a future.
She doesn’t let me have control anymore. I must’ve crossed a line, I must’ve lost my mind.
Crack me open and get drunk on the contents of my spirit. Warning: consuming too much may have permanent effects.
Love is the wisdom of the fool and the folly of the wise.
Love can be hard. Love requires you to be kind when you are angry, patient when you feel anxious, compassionate when you judge others, caring when you feel apathetic, trust when you’ve been wronged, let go when you want to hold on, know that the other person is you, take risks when you’re scared, to always see the lesson and never look back once you’ve decided. – Jackson Kiddard
I have simply found a way of loving through whatever absences or dejections have fallen like tree branches in my path.
Love is that condition in which the happiness of another person is essential to your own.
When love awakens in your life, in the night of your heart, it is like the dawn breaking within you. Where before there was anonymity, now there is intimacy; where before there was fear, now there is courage; where before in your life there was awkwardness, now there is a rhythm of grace and gracefulness; where before you used to be jagged, now you are elegant and in rhythm with your self. When love awakens in your life, it is like a rebirth, a new beginning.
It is most unwise for people in love to marry.
Love is a canvas furnished by nature and embroidered by imagination.
My wish for us all is to love and adore ourselves just as much as we do everyone else!
To the people who love you, you are beautiful already. This is not because they’re blind to your shortcomings but because they so clearly see your soul. Your shortcomings then dim by comparison. The people who care about you are willing to let you be imperfect and beautiful, too.
Treasure the love you receive above all. It will survive long after your good health has vanished.
To get rid of an enemy one must love him.
I’ve always loved you, and when you love someone, you love the whole person, just as he or she is, and not as you would like them to be.
O ’tis love, ’tis love, ’tis love that makes the world go round!
