Do not fear the thorns in your path, for they draw only corrupt blood.

That deepest thing, that recognition, that knowledge, that sense of kinship began the first time I saw you,and it is the same now - only a thousand times deeper and tenderer. I shall love you to eternity. I loved you long before we met in this flesh. I knew that when I first saw you. It was destiny. We are together like this and nothing can shake us apart.

When you reach the heart of life you shall find beauty in all things, even in the eyes that are blind to beauty.

To be closer to god, be closer to people.

Thus with my lips have I denounced you, while my heart, bleeding within me, called you tender names. It was love lashed by its own self that spoke. It was pride half slain that fluttered in the dust. It was my hunger for your love that raged from the housetop, while my own love, kneeling in silence, prayed your forgiveness.

When you have grasped a problem clearly, face it with resolution, for that is the way of the strong.

Strange that we all defend our wrongs with more vigor than we do our rights.
