The more I
think about it, the more I realize there is nothing more
artistic that to love others.
-- Vincent Van Gogh
1853-1890, Dutch Painter

something eternal; the aspect may change, but not the
essence.
-- Vincent Van Gogh

The best way
to know God is to love many things.
-- Vincent Van Gogh
1853-1890, Dutch Painter
Today I begin
to understand what love must be, if it exists. When we are
parted, we each feel the lack of the other half of
ourselves. We are incomplete like a book in two volumes of
which the first has been lost. That is what I imagine love
to be: incompleteness in absence.
-- Edmond and Jules De
Goncourt
1822-1896, French Writers

Love is not
blind -- it sees more, not less. But because it sees more,
it is willing to see less.
-- Rabbi J. Gordon
Let the first
impulse pass, wait for the second.
-- Baltasar Gracian
1601-1658, Spanish
Philosopher, Writer
God proved His
love on the Cross. When Christ hung, and bled, and died, it
was God saying to the world, ''I love you.''
-- Billy Graham
1918-, American Evangelist
Love, love,
love -- all the wretched cant of it, masking egotism, lust,
masochism, fantasy under a mythology of sentimental
postures, a welter of self-induced miseries and joys,
blinding and masking the essential personalities in the
frozen gestures of courtship, in the kissing and the dating
and the desire, the compliments and the quarrels which
vivify its barrenness.
-- Germaine Greer
1939-, Australian Feminist
Writer
