Life is given to us, we earn it by giving it.

Let only that little be left of me whereby I may name thee my all. Let only that little be left of my will whereby I may feel thee on every side, and come to thee in everything, and offer to thee my love every moment. Let only that little be left of me whereby I may never hide thee. Let only that little of my fetters be left whereby I am bound with thy will, and thy purpose is carried out in my life--and that is the fetter of thy love.

Those who are near me do not know that you are nearer to me than they are Those who speak to me do not know that my heart is full with your unspoken words Those who crowd in my path do not know that I am walking alone with you Those who love me do not know that their love brings you to my heart

By touching you may kill, by keeping away you may possess.

The first flower that blossomed on this earth was an invitation to an unborn song.

Ah, thou hast made my heart captive in the endless meshes of thy music, my master!

Those who have everything but thee, my God, laugh at those who have nothing but thyself.
