― Parker J. Palmer, Let Your Life Speak: Listening for the Voice of Vocation

“Let men tremble to win the hand of woman, unless they win along with it the utmost passion of her heart! Else it may be their miserable fortune, as it was Roger Chillingworth's, when some mightier touch than their own may have awakened all her sensibilities, to be reproached even for the calm content, the marble imbue of happiness, which they will have imposed upon her as the warm reality.”
― Nathaniel Hawthorne, The Scarlet Letter

But sigh'st my soul away;
When thou weep'st, unkindly kind,
My life's blood doth decay.

That thou lov'st me, as thou say'st,
If in thine my life thou waste,”
― John Donne

― Kelleen Goerlitz, The Complete Works of a Lost Girl

“What's love? You are feeling good talking to a young girl. That's it. During their youth, everyone feels good talking to a person of the opposite sex who is attractive. And they name that feel-good feeling as love. Blinded by this feeling, they forget to think about the future.”
― Bharani Kumar Buyakar, Once Again Beautiful And Pure: A Tale of Strength and Redemption

“Like all fads which come and go, all are familiar with those types of people who want to seem tough, who for some form of acceptance want to impress others with their rigidity; but there is another kind of person that does the very same thing when espousing on 'love': while some pretend to be tougher than they really are, others pretend to be lovers when they really aren't.”
― Criss Jami
