Love Quotes and Sayings
I wept because I could not believe anymore and I love to believe. I can still love passionately without believing. That means I love humanly. I wept because from now on I will weep less. I wept because I have lost my pain and I am not yet accustomed to its absence. ~ Anaïs Nin. From childhood’s hour I have not been. As others were, I have not seen. As others saw, I could not awaken. My heart to joy at the same tone. And all I loved, I loved alone. ~ Edgar Allan Poe. He drew a circle that shut me out —/ Heretic, rebel, a thing to flout./ But Love and I had the wit to win:/ We drew a circle and took him in. ~ Edwin Markham. If we would build on a sure foundation in friendship, we must love our friends for their sakes rather than for our own. ~ Charlotte Brontë. The Great Stories are the ones you have heard and want to hear again. The ones you can enter anywhere and inhabit comfortably. They don’t deceive you with thrills and trick endings. They don’t surprise you with the unforeseen. They are as familiar as the house you live in. Or the smell of your lover’s skin. You know how they end, yet you listen as though you don’t. In the way that although you know that one day you will die, you live as though you won’t. ~ Arundhati Roy. |
