I have found the paradox, that if you love until it hurts, there can be no more hurt, only more love.


Mother Teresa

“Love doesn't grow on trees like apples in Eden - it's something you have to make. And you must use your imagination too.”

- Joyce Cary

Mind is the Master--power that molds and makes, and Man is Mind, and ever more he takes the Tool of Thought, and shaping what he wills, brings forth a thousand joys, a thousand ills--He thinks in secret and it comes to pass; Environment is but his looking-glass.


- James Allen

"Once you drink one glass, you want another."

John Forsythe

The beauty of the soul shines out when a man bears with composure one heavy mischance after another, not because he does not feel them, but because he is a man of high and heroic temper.


- Aristotle

"The best remedy for a short temper is a long walk."

Joseph Joubert

When one is rising, standing, walking, doing something, stopping, one should constantly concentrate one's mind on the act and the doing of it, not one ones' relation to the act or its character or value... One should simply practice concentration of the mind on the act itself, understanding it to be an expedient means for attaining tranquility of mind, realization, insight, and wisdom.


- Ashvaghosha

"Does wisdom perhaps appear on the earth as a raven which is inspired by the smell of carrion?"

Friedrich Nietzsche

"Wisdom doesn't necessarily come with age. Sometimes age just shows up all by itself."

Tom Wilson

Mutual respect implies discretion and reserve even in love itself; it means preserving as much liberty as possible to those whose life we share. We must distrust our instinct of intervention, for the desire to make one's own will prevail is often disguised under the mask of solicitude.
