Never run faster than your
guardian angel can fly.
The art of life is love.
Memories are smiles to the saddened heart.
Your sole contribution to
the sum of things is yourself.
There exists no cure for a heart
wounded with the sword of separation.
For each dear gift of joy, thank God.
So long as we love, we serve.
There is a chord in every heart that
has a sigh in it if touched right.
He jests at scars that never felt a wound.
Sentiment is the poetry of the imagination.
Wonder is involuntary praise.
Friendship is the highest degree of
perfection in society.
When love and skill work together,
expect a masterpiece.
Love comes unseen;
we only see it go.
The consciousness of being loved
softens the keenest pang.
He drew a circle that shut me out-
Heretic, rebel, a thing to flout.
But love and I had the wit to win:
We drew a circle that took him in.
To love and win is the best thing;
to love and lose the next best.
Love of truth will bless the lover all of his days.
Have a heart that never hardens,
and a temper that never tires,
and a touch that never hurts.
Know love, know happiness.
No love, no happiness.
All love is sweet. Given or returned.
Common as light is love,
and its familiar voice wearies not ever...
they who inspire it are most fortunate,
as I am now,
but those who feel it most are happier still.
Love is like playing piano.
First you must learn to play by the rules,
then you must forget the rules
and play from your heart!
Love is not blind - it sees more and not less,
but because it sees more it is willing to see less.
Love is an irresistible desire
to be irresistibly desired.
Love is falling asleep in his arms
and waking up in his dreams.
Kindness is the ability to love someone
more than they deserve.

Rules of Love and Friendship
We cannot really love someone
who never makes us laugh.
A friend is the one who comes
in when the whole world has gone out.
Begin the day with friendliness,
keep friendly all day long,
keep in your soul a friendly thought,
in your heart a friendly song.
When a friend is in trouble, don't ask
if there is anything you can do.
Think up something appropriate and do it!
Some people make the world special
just by being in it.
The heart that loves is always young.
Love is earth and sky and warmth and light.
Actions, not words, are the true criteria
of the attachment of friends.
Love pours sweetness into anything.
Love can transform the world.
Take hold gently, let go gently.
This is a great source of happiness in love.
Only friends will tell you the truths
you need to hear to make your life bearable.
Not even poets have measured how much
love a heart can hold.
Only with the heart can we see rightly,
the essential is invisible to the eye.
Love is feeling another's delight as your own.
Love consists of this,
that two solitude's protect
and touch and greet each other.
You love simply because you cannot help it.
Love makes you believe in miracles.
Instead of a gem, or even a flower,
cast the gift of a lovely thought
into the heart of a friend.
Love is a word of light,
written by a hand of light,
upon a page of light.
Love is the flower of life,
and blossoms unexpectedly and without law,
and must be plucked where it is found,
and enjoyed for the brief hour of its duration
