Love is wont to visit Man in the company of Desire; but Woman by himself.
As the bud a leaf, so at last the thought becomes a word.
If Pity come as Pity, bid her stay; But if in guise of Love, chase her away.
In the religion of Love the courtesan is a heretic; but the nun is an atheist.
Love is God's essence; Power but his attribute: therefore is his love greater than his power.
Life without Love is as a flower without fragrance.
