There is nothing I would not do for those who are really my friends. I have no notion of loving people by halves, it is not my nature.

I believe that every single event in life happens in an opportunity to choose love over fear.

Beautiful discourse is rarer than emerald, yet it can be found among the servant girls at the grindstones.

Love is the poetry of the senses.

Love doesn't just sit there, like a stone; it has to be made, like bread, remade all the time, made new.

The only abnormality is the incapacity to love.
