If you can learn to love yourself
The hunger for love is much more difficult to remove than the hunger for bread.
LOVE, THE HUNGER OF LOVE IS MUCH MORE DIFFICULT
Love is never lost. If not reciprocated, it will flow back and soften and purify the heart.
For though we love both the truth and our friends, piety requires us to honor the truth first.
LOVE, LOVE BOTH THE TRUTH AND OUR FRIENDS
What we have once enjoyed we can never lose. All that we love deeply becomes a part of us.
