Mother Teresa

" There is always something to do. There are hungry people to feed, naked people to clothe, sick people to comfort and make well. And while I don't expect you to save the world I do think it's not asking too much for you to love those with whom you sleep, share the happiness of those whom you call friend, engage those among you who are visionary and remove from your life those who offer you depression, despair and disrespect."
Nikki Giovanni

" Love is a great beautifier."
Louisa May Alcott (1832-1888) American Novelist, Children's Writer
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
" What we need to know about loving is no great mystery. We all know what constitutes loving behavior; we need but act upon it, not continually question it. Over-analysis often confuses the issue and in the end brings us no closer to insight. We sometimes become too busy classifying, separating, and examining, to remember that love is easy. It's we who make it complicated."
Leo F. Buscaglia (1924-1998)

" The greatest healing therapy is friendship and love."
Hubert Horatio Humphrey (1911-1978)

" Absence diminishes little passions and increases great ones, as the wind extinguishes candles and fans a fire.”
Francois Duc de la Rochefoucauld

" To love is to risk not being loved in return. To hope is to risk pain. To try is to risk failure, but risk must be taken because the greatest hazard in life is to risk nothing."

Unknown

" They are wrong who say that love is blind. On the contrary, nothing - not even the smallest detail - escapes the eyes; one sees everything in the loved one, notices everything; but melts it all into one flame with the great and simple: I love you."
Unknown

" If we seek to manifest love by utilizing our inherent abilities to serve others in whatever we are doing, we find the greatest opportunity for development, for then we are giving expression to our love for our neighbors and ourselves."
The Intelligent Heart, David McArthur and Bruce McArthur
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
" I have never met a person whose greatest need was anything other than real, unconditional love. You can find it in a simple act of kindness toward someone who needs help. There is no mistaking love. You feel it in your heart. It is the common fiber of life, the flame of that heats our soul, energizes our spirit and supplies passion to our lives. It is our connection to God and to each other."
Elizabeth Kubler-Ross
The Wheel of Life (Scribner)

" Life is to be fortified by many friendships. To love and be loved is the greatest happiness of existence."
Sydney Smith

" The greatest science in the world; in heaven and on earth; is love."
Mother Teresa

Mother Teresa of Avila 'My Life for the Poor'

" If we deny love that is given to us, if we refuse to give love because we fear pain or loss, then our lives will be empty, our loss greater.”
