Deny yourself nothing -- glue your self infinity and eternity and discover that you do not need them; you are beyond". ~ Sri Nisargadatta Maharaj

"Have you ever been in love? Horrible isn't it? It makes you so vulnerable. It opens your chest and it opens up your heart and it means that someone can get inside you and mess you up. You build up all these defenses, you build up a whole suit of armor, so that nothing can hurt you, then one stupid person, no different from any other stupid person, wanders into your stupid life...You give them a piece of you. They didn't ask for it. They did something dumb one day, like smile at you, and then your life isn't your own anymore. Love takes hostages. It gets inside you. It eats you out and leaves you crying in the darkness, so simple a phrase like 'maybe we should be just friends' turns into a glass splinter working its way into your heart. It hurts. Not just in the imagination. Not just in the mind. It's a soul-hurt, a real gets-inside-you-and-rips-you-apart pain. I hate love". ~ Neil Gaiman

"Im not as cold as you think. Im not falling, Im just on the brink. Im floating between this world and the next. Donno where to go, As long as I am who I know. As long as I have myself then I dont care. Say what you want, Say what you will, Say anything. It wont change how I feel. I used to be so cold, And then I woke up and realised, you ARE the cold. You are the one who leaves me, Your breath upon the foggy window of my soul, writing message of hate, that burns its way into my heart. And now Im wiping them all away. Slowly, Slowly, one by one. The rest will fade with the rain when it comes." Rebecca Curulli

"Love, the strongest and deepest element in all life, the harbinger of hope, of joy, of ecstasy; love, the defier of all laws, of all conventions; love, the freest, the most powerful moulder of human destiny; how can such an all-compelling force be synonymous with that poor little State and Church-begotten weed, marriage?
Free love? As if love is anything but free! Man has bought brains, but all the millions in the world have failed to buy love. Man has subdued bodies, but all the power on earth has been unable to subdue love. Man has conquered whole nations, but all his armies could not conquer love. Man has chained and fettered the spirit, but he has been utterly helpless before love. High on a throne, with all the splendor and pomp his gold can command, man is yet poor and desolate, if love passes him by. And if it stays, the poorest hovel is radiant with warmth, with life and color. Thus love has the magic power to make of a beggar a king.

Verses
Merry run around
sailing up and down
just looking for a shove
in some direction--
got it from the top
it's nothing you can stop
Lord, you know they
made a fine connection
They love each other
Lord, you can see it's true
- Robert Hunter, lyricist of the Grateful Dead
Escape me ?
Never -
Beloved !
While I am I, and you are you,
So long as the world
contains us both,
Me the loving and you
the loth,
While the one eludes, must
the other persue.
- Robert Browning
Love reckons by itself -- alone --
"As large as I" -- relate the Sun
To One who never felt it blaze --
Itself is all the like it has --
- Emily Dickinson from Love reckons by itself
I hold it true, whate'er befall
I feel it, when I sorrow most;
'Tis better to have loved and lost
Than never to have loved at all.
- Alfred, Lord Tennyson
If music be the food of love, play on;
Give me excess of it, that, surfeiting,
The appetite may sicken, and so die.
- William Shakespeare from Twelfth Night (I, i,1-3)
If thou must love me, let it be for nought
Except for love's sake only. Do not say,
I love her for her smile... her look... her way
Of speaking gently... for a trick of thought
That falls in well with mine, and, certes, brought
A sense of pleasant ease on such a day-
For these things in themselves, Beloved, may
Be changed, or change for thee-and love so wrought,
May be unwrought so.
- Elizabeth Barrett Browning Sonnets from the Portuguese, Sonnet 14
Love is a smoke raised with the fume of sighs
Being purged, the fire in lovers' eyes,
Being vexed, a sea nourished with lovers' tears.
What is it? A madness most discreet,
A choking gall and a preserving sweet.
- "Romeo" in Romeo and Juliet act 1, sc. 1 by William Shakespeare
Love is not love
Which alters when it alteration finds,
Or bends with the remover to remove:
O, no! it is an ever-fixed mark,
That looks on tempests and is never shaken.
- William Shakespeare
Love's not Time's fool, though rosy lips and cheeks
Within his bending sickle's compass come;
Love alters not with his brief hours and weeks,
But bears it out even to the edge of doom.
If this be error and upon me prov'd,
I never writ, nor no man ever lov'd.
- William Shakespeare
My love is as boundless as the sea,
My love as deep; the more I give to thee,
The more I have, for both are infinite.
- William Shakespeare in Romeo and Juliet
O, how this spring of love resembleth
The uncertain glory of an April day;
Which now shows all the beauty of the sun,
And by and by a cloud takes all away."
- William Shakespeare from The Two Gentlemen of Verona (I, iii, 84-87)
O lyric love, half angel
and half bird,
And all a wonder and a
wild desire !
- Robert Browning
You see through love, and that
deludes your sight,
As what is straight seems
crooked through the water.
- John Dryden (1631-1700)
The breaths are air and they go to the air!
The tears are water and they go into the sea!
Tell me women: When love gets forgotten?
And do you know where it goes?
- Gustavo Adolfo Becquer
When I'm feeling blue
All I have to do
Is take a look at you
And then I'm not so blue
Wouldn't you agree, baby, you and me, we got a groovy kind of love.
- Wayne Fontana
Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud.
It is not rude, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs.
Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth.
It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres.
1 Corinthians 13:4-7 (New International Version)
