        Neal Visher   Best?
  • Lots of people lose themselves in love, it's no shame, they write songs about it. The hitch is you can't stay lost, sooner or later you have to get back to yourself. If you can't then love becomes your master and you're just it's dog.
        Marti Noxon   Best?
  • Everything terrible is something that needs our love.
        Rilke   Best?
  • Love is patient; love is kind; love is not envious or boastful or arrogant or rude. It does not insist on its own way; it is not irritable or resentful; it does not rejoice in wrongdoing, but rejoices in the truth. It bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, endures all things.
        Bible   Best?

        Michelangelo   Best?
  • There is no mistaking a real book when one meets it. It is like falling in love.
        Christopher Morley   Best?
  • What else is love but understanding and rejoicing in the fact that another person lives, acts, and experiences otherwise than we do…?
        Frederich Nietzsche   Best?
  • This year, or this month, or, more likely, this very day, we have failed to practise ourselves the kind of behaviour we expect from other people.
        C. S. Lewis   Best?
  • If you have an apple and I have an apple and we exchange apples then you and I will still each have one apple. But if you have an idea and I have an idea and we exchange these ideas, then each of us will have two ideas.
        George Bernard Shaw   Best?
  • Take something you love, tell people about it, bring together people who share your love and help make it better. Ultimately, you'll have more of whatever you love for yourself and for the world.
        Julius Schwartz   Best?
  • Love is a perky elf dancing a merry little jig, then suddenly he turns on you with a miniature machine gun.
        Matt Groening   Best?

  • I love drugs, but I hate hangovers, and the hatred of the hangover wins by a landslide every time.
        Margaret Cho   Best?
  • May your trails be crooked, winding, lonesome, dangerous, leading to the most amazing view. May your mountains rise into and above the clouds.
        Edward Abbey   Best?
  • We may not imagine how our lives could be more frustrating and complex--but Congress can.
        Cullen Hightower   Best?
  • There are many in the world dying for a piece of bread, but there are many more dying for a little love.
        Mother Theresa   Best?
  • To love oneself is the beginning of a life-long romance.
        Muriel Strode   Best?
  • Every single one of us can do things that no one else can do -- can love things that no one else can love. We are like violins. We can be used for doorstops, or we can make music. You know what to do.
        Barbara Sher   Best?
  • I have learned to love that which is meant to harm me, so that I can stand in the way of those who are less strong. I can take the bullets for those who aren't able to.
        Margaret Cho   Best?
  • You know who I idolized? Mr. Rogers. Is there a market for the next Mr. Rogers? Because I'd love to do that. I'd much rather be quiet and important like him than live large and be some useless celebrity.

  • To be brave is to love someone unconditionally, without expecting anything in return. To just give. That takes courage, because we don't want to fall on our faces or leave ourselves open to hurt.
        Madonna   Best?
  • What is it about possessing things? Why do we feel the need to own what we love, and why do we become jerks when we do? We've all been there-- you want something, to possess it. By possessing something you lose it. You finally win the girl of your dreams, the first thing you do is change her. The little things she does with her hair, the way she wears her clothes or the way she chews her gum. Pretty soon what you like, what you changed, what you don't like, blends together like a watercolor in the rain.
        Jeff Melvoin   Best?
  • The fact that we don't know this man, isn't important really. Cause his experience is our experience, and his fate is our fate. Vani tass, vani tatum, et omni i vani tass, says the preacher. All is vanity I think that's a pretty good epitaph for all of us. When we're stripped of all our worldly possessions and all our fame, family, friends, we all face death alone. But it's that solitude in death that's our common bond in life. I know it's ironic, but that's just the way things are. Vani tass, vani tatum, et omni i vani tass. Only when we understand all is vanity, only then, it isn't.
        Northern Exposure   Best?
  • We all carry around so much pain in our hearts. Love and pain and beauty. They all seem to go together like one little tidy confusing package. It's a messy business, life. It's hard to figure--full of surprises. Some good. Some bad.
        Henry Bromel   Best?
  • I started concentrating so hard on my vision that I lost sight.
        Robin Green   Best?
  • I hope you love birds too. It is economical. It saves going to heaven.

  • Welcome to the human race. Nobody controls his own life, Ender. The best you can do is choose to be controlled by good people, by people who love you.
        Orson Scott Card   Best?
  • But pride only helps us to be generous; it never makes us so, any more than vanity makes us witty.
        Georges Eliot   Best?
  • You can forget a lot of things, but you cannot forget a woman's name and claim to love her.
        Real Live Preacher   Best?
  • The love of truth lies at the root of much humor.
        Robertson Davies   Best?
  • The grass is not, in fact, always greener on the other side of the fence. Fences have nothing to do with it. The grass is greenest where it is watered. When crossing over fences, carry water with you and tend the grass wherever you may be.
        Robert Fulghum   Best?
  • Oh, what a dear ravishing thing is the beginning of an Amour!
        Aphra Behn   Best?
