A friendship that like love is warm; A love like friendship, steady.

It may help us, in those times of trouble, to remember that love is not only about relationship, it is also an affair of the soul.

A soul mate is someone to whom we feel profoundly connected, as though the communication and communing that take place between us were not the product of intentional efforts, but rather a divine grace. This kind of relationship is so important to the soul that many have said there is nothing more precious in life.

Romantic love is an illusion. Most of us discover this truth at the end of a love affair or else when the sweet emotions of love lead us into marriage and then turn down their flames.

Like ships that have gone down at sea, when heaven was all tranquillity.

Here bring your wounded hearts, here tell your anguish; Earth has no sorrow that Heaven cannot heal.

Bastard Freedom waves Her fustian flag in mockery over slaves.
