A part of kindness consists in loving people more than they deserve.

For though we love both the truth and our friends, piety requires us to honor the truth first.

A good teacher can inspire hope, ignite the imagination, and instill a love of learning.

When we are in love we seem to ourselves quite different from what we were before.

Love takes off masks that we fear we cannot live without and know we cannot live within.

Love is the only reality and it is not a more sentiment. It is the ultimate truth that lies at the heart of creation.

There is no friendship, no love, like that of the parent for the child.

Love is always open arms. If you close your arms about love you will find that you are left holding only yourself.

The sweetest of all sounds is that of the voice of the woman we love.

Friendship may, and often does, grow into love, but love never subsides into friendship.
