And Love Quotes (page 30)

Even innocence itself has many a wile, And will not dare to trust itself with truth, And love is taught hypocrisy from youth. George Byron
Even in the depths of sleep, in which he had to satisfy his need for protection and love by curling himself up into a trembling ball, he could not rid himself of the feeling of loneliness and homelessness. Bruno Schulz
I believe that anyone can be successful in life, regardless of natural talent or the environment within which we live. This is not based on measuring success by human competitiveness for wealth, possessions, influence, and fame, but adhering to God's standards of truth, justice, humility, service, compassion, forgiveness, and love. Jimmy Carter
To try is to risk failure. But risk must be taken because the greatesthazard of life is to risk nothing. The person who risks nothing does nothing, has nothing, is nothing. He may avoid suffering and sorrow, but he simply cannot learn, feel, change, grow, live, and love. Leo Buscaglia
He was a worshiper of liberty, a friend of the oppressed. A thousand times I have heard him quote these words: "For Justice all place a temple, and all season, summer." He believed that happiness is the only good, reason the only torch, justice the only worship, humanity the only religion, and love the only priest. Robert Green Ingersoll
I cannot alter - my affection and love is beyond even this world! Nothing will shake it but yourself; and that I will not allow myself to think for a moment is possible. Horatio Nelson
Gerard Manley Hopkins quote: "Nothing is so beautiful as Spring-When weeds, in wheels, shoot..."
Nothing is so beautiful as Spring-When weeds, in wheels, shoot long and lovely and lush;(from "Spring") Gerard Manley Hopkins
Emily Dickinson quote: "Write me of hope and love, and hearts that endured."
Write me of hope and love, and hearts that endured. Emily Dickinson
A curse on this game. How can you stick at a game when the rules keep on changing? I shall call myself Alice and play croquet with the flamingos. In Wonderland everyone cheats and love is Wonderland, isn't it? Jeanette Winterson
Embrace your solitude and love it. Endure the pain it causes, and try to sing out with it. For those near to you are distant... Rainer Maria Rilke
She was at that modulating point between indifference and love, at the stage called having a fancy for. It occurs once in the history of the most gigantic passions, and it is a period when they are in the hands of the weakest will. Thomas Hardy
I hated men because they didn’t stay around and love me like a father: I could prick holes in them & show they were no father-material. I made them propose and then showed them they hadn’t a chance. I hated men because they didn’t have to suffer like a woman did. They could die or go to Spain. They could have fun while a woman had birth pangs. They could gamble while a woman skimped on the butter on the bread. Men, nasty lousy men. Sylvia Plath
Is there not something wanted, Miss Price, in our language - a something between compliments and - and love - to suit the sort of friendly acquaintance we have had together? Jane Austen
Let's face it: Sadness and evil are always more believable than happiness and love. When a movie reviewer calls a film "realistic," everyone knows what that means--it means the movie has an unhappy ending. Chuck Klosterman
His abhorrence and fear of alcohol did not extend to his power as host. He kept a huge cupboard of drinks in the station house and loved to serve large measures to visiting relatives--especially those he disliked--about which there was a definite element of spreading bait for garden snails. John McGahern
