If one wishes to be a lover he must start by saying 'YES' to love.

Every moment spent in unhappiness is a moment of happiness lost.

The only lasting trauma is the one we suffer without positive change.

The lover must often say, "I love because I must, because I will it. I love for myself, not for others. I love for the joy it gives me - and incedentally, only - for that joy it gives to others. If they reinforce me it will be good. If they do not, it also will be good, for I will to love."

You can only give away what you have ... If you have love, you can give it. If you don't have it, you don't have it to give.

Relish love in your old age! Aged love is like aged wine; it becomes more satisfying, more refreshing, more valuable, more appreciated and more intoxicating!

Yet, it never seems as obvious to him that if he wants to live in love, he must spend at least as much time as the auto mechanic or the gourmet in studying love.
