You can be lonely even when you are loved by many people, since you are still not anybody's one and only. Anne Frank
In my despair my enemy was my only hope, and I pursued him, clutching at his heel. Thus he brought me back at last to the secret ways... J. R. R. Tolkien
Mother Teresa quote: "love only variously everyday. The meaning of love"
love only variously everyday. The meaning of love Mother Teresa
I was not offended, my love. An insult is like a drink; it affects one only if accepted. And pride is too heavy baggage for my journey... Robert A. Heinlein

I saw a star slide down the sky. Blinding the north as it went by. Too buring and too quick to hold. Too lovely to be bought or sold. Good only to make wishes on. And then forever to be gone Sara Teasdale
Why shouldn't the death of a person you love bring you into lurid ruin? You don't know how to love the one you love until they disappear abruptly. Then you understand how thinly distanced from their suffering, how sparing of self you often were, only rarely unguarded of heart, working your networks of give-and-take. Don DeLillo
I had a mind to make a body of more or less connected legend, ranging from the large and cosmogonic, to the level of romantic fairy-story - the larger founded on the lesser in contact with the earth, the lesser drawing splendour from the vast backcloths - which I could dedicate simply to: to England; to my country. ... I would draw some of the great tales in fullness, and leave many only placed in the scheme, and sketched. The cycles should be linked to a majestic whole, and yet leave scope... J. R. R. Tolkien
...there was only one thing that interested her and that was getting into bed with men whenever she'd the chance. And I warned her straight. 'You'll be sorry one day, my girl, and wish you'd got me back'. Albert Camus
There is no difficulty that enough love will not conquer: no disease that love will not heal: no door that enough love will not open...It makes no difference how deep set the trouble: how hopeless the outlook: how muddled the tangle: how great the mistake. A sufficient realization of love will dissolve it all. If only you could love enough you would be the happiest and most powerful being in the world... Emmet Fox
The true nature of bureaucracy may be nowhere more obvious to the observer than in a developing country, for only there will it still be made manifest by the full complement of documents, files, veneered desks and cabinets - which convey the strict and inverse relationship between productivity and paperwork. Alain de Botton

the only thing you need todo for now is get some rest and take good care of yourself until you doknow the answer Elizabeth Gilbert
Sometimes you read a passage by a great writer, and you know what he says and how he says it will always be, for you, the only possible way it could be. Less often a painter will describe an event in a way that fits into your interpretation of that event so perfectly that it becomes the event itself. Vincent Price
