"We ourselves feel that what we are doing is just a drop in the ocean. But the ocean would be less because of that missing drop." "I know God will not give me anything I can't handle. I just wish that He didn't trust me so much." "I have found the paradox that if I love until it hurts, then there is no hurt, but only more love." "Peace begins with a smile." 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."
