Love

"They say that love flies out the window when poverty comes in the door, but people generally get the sense backwards. It doesn’t mean that when a man’s money runs out he’s shaken off by women. When he runs out of money, he naturally is in the dumps. He’s no good for anything. The strength goes out of his laugh, he becomes strangely soured. Finally, in desperation, he shakes off the woman."

"If we seek the pleasures of love, passion should be occasional, and common sense continual."

"Amor ch' a nullo amato amar perdona."

"Qual è 'l geomètra che tutto s'affige per misurar lo cerchio, e non ritrova, pensando, quel principio ond' elli indige,'tal era io a quella vista nova: veder voleva come si convenne l'imago al cerchio e come vi s'indova;'ma non eran da ciò le proprie penne: se non che la mia mente fu percossa da un fulgore in che sua voglia venne.'A l'alta fantasia qui mancò possa; ma già volgeva il mio disio e 'l velle, sì come rota ch'igualmente è mossa,'l'amor che move il sole e l'altre stelle."

"The Caladrius is a bird of which it is related that, when it is carried into the presence of a sick person, if the sick man is going to die, the bird turns away its head and never looks at him; but if the sick man is to be saved the bird never loses sight of him but is the cause of curing him of all his sickness. Like unto this is the love of virtue. It never looks at any vile or base thing, but rather clings always to pure and virtuous things and takes up its abode in a noble heart; as the birds do in green woods on flowery branches. And this Love shows itself more in adversity than in prosperity; as light does, which shines most where the place is darkest."

"When that which loves is united to the thing beloved it can rest there; when the burden is laid down it finds rest there. There will be eternal fame also for the inhabitants of that town, constructed and enlarged by him."

"The lover is moved by the beloved object as the senses are by sensual objects; and they unite and become one and the same thing. The work is the first thing born of this union; if the thing loved is base the lover becomes base."

"I was searching for an answer In a world so full of strangers But what I found was never really enough Now that I've found you I'm looking in the eyes of love (In the eyes of love) Baby you've been good to me Oh, so much more that you could know, yeah, yeah I never thought that I would find Someone who's so sweet and kind Like you... Please believe me when I say This time I won't run away I swear by all the heaven's stars above Now that I've found you I'm looking in the eyes of love Looking in the eyes of love... I can see forever, yeah... I can see you and me Walking in this world together Oh, my heart's found a hope... I've been dreaming of... Now that I've found you I'm looking in the eyes of love"

"The daylight's fading slowly But time with you is standing still I'm waiting for you only The slightest touch and I feel weak [...] And if there's no tomorrow And all we have is here and now I'm happy just to have you You're all the love I need somehow"

"I met you on a sunny Autumn day You instantly attracted me when asking for the way God, if I had known the pain I'd make you feel I would have stopped this start of us, and turned upon my heel [...] You recognized my barrier to love I know there's nothing worse than unrequited love So I prayed to God that I could give the love you gave to me But something's lying in my way, preventing it to be"

"Mine to the core of the heart, my beauty! Mine, all mine, and for love, not duty: Love given willingly, full and free, Love for love's sake — as mine to thee. Duty's a slave that keeps the keys, But Love, the master, goes in and out Of his goodly chambers with song and shout, Just as he please — just as he please."

"When faith and hope fail, as they do sometimes, we must try charity, which is love in action. We must speculate no more on our duty, but simply do it. When we have done it, however blindly, perhaps Heaven will show us why."
