Top 5 quotes from Francois Marie Arouet (Voltaire)
"God is a comedian playing to an audience too afraid to laugh."
"Anything that is too stupid to be spoken is sung."
"Appreciation is a wonderful thing: It makes what is excellent in others belong to us as well."
"A witty saying proves nothing."
"Nothing can be more contrary to religion and the clergy than reason and common sense."
Top 5 quotes from Love
"Where there is no exaggeration there is no love, and where there is no love there is no understanding."
"Love never dies a natural death. It dies because we don't know how to replenish it's source. It dies of blindness and errors and betrayals. It dies of illness and wounds; it dies of weariness, of witherings, of tarnishings."
"Love anything and your heart will be wrung and possibly broken. If you want to make sure of keeping it intact you must give it to no one, not even an animal. Wrap it carefully round with hobbies and little luxuries; avoid all entanglements. Lock it up safe in the casket or coffin of your selfishness. But in that casket, safe, dark, motionless, airless, it will change. It will not be broken; it will become unbreakable, impenetrable, irredeemable. To love is to be vulnerable."
"Love is not affectionate feeling, but a steady wish for the loved person's ultimate good as far as it can be obtained."
"Love is an irresistible desire to be irresistibly desired."
