“Love gives naught but itself and takes naught but from itself. Love possesses not nor would it be possessed; For love is sufficient unto love.”

The Prophet • Kahlil Gibran

“If happiness lay in bodily pleasures, we would call oxen happy when they find vetch to eat.”

Fragments • Heraclitus

“Their return home to their father and a good life was always so satisfying and splendid; I realized keenly that that was the only proper, good, and desirable outcome, but the part of the story that took place among the wicked and the lost was by far the more appealing, and, if one were free to state and admit it, it was sometimes actually a downright shame that the prodigal repented and was found again”

Demian • Hermann Hesse

“Gold conjures up a mist about a man, more destructive of all his old senses and lulling to his feelings than the fumes of charcoal.”

Nicholas Nickleby • Charles Dickens

“ “ If I died I would still be part of life in one way or another.””

Seagull • Anton Chekhov
