«Authority without wisdom is like a heavy ax without an edge, fitter to bruise than polish»
«A soulmate is someone who has locks that fit our keys, and keys to fit our locks. When we feel safe enough to open the locks, our truest selves step out and we can be completely and honestly who we are; we can be loved for who we are and not for who we?re pretending to be. Each unveils the best part of the other. No matter what else goes wrong around us, with that one person we?re safe in our own paradise. Our soulmate is someone who shares our deepest longings, our sense of direction. When we?re two balloons, and together our direction is up, chances are we?ve found the right person. Our soulmate is the one who makes life come to life.»

«Sweetest love, I do not go, / For weariness of thee, / Nor in hope the world can show / A fitter Love for me; / But since that I / Must die at last, 'tis best / To use myself in jest, / Thus by feigned deaths to die.»
«Perhaps it will seem to you that the sunshine is brighter and that everything has a new charm. At least, I believe this is always the result of a deep love, and it is a beautiful thing. And I believe people who think love prevents one from thinking clearly are wrong; for then one thinks very clearly and is more active than before. And love is something eternal--the aspect may change, but not the essence. There is the same difference in a person before and after he is in love as there is in an unlighted lamp and one that is burning. The lamp was there and it was a good lamp, but now it is shedding light too, and that is its real function. And love makes one calmer about many things, and in that way, one is more fit for one's work.»
