I love, therefore I am

- Unknown

Once you know the God of Love, you fire all the other gods.

- Mirabai Starr

Love. Period.  Everything else is commentary.

- Jacqui Lewis

Solidarity and compassion is love in action.

- Barbara Holmes

Following the Way…

Goodness... is a given

Love... is not optional

- Joseph Krans

Love is the only thing that transforms the human heart.

- Richard Rohr

Remember: if you want to make progress on the path and ascend to the places you have longed for, the important thing is not to think much but to love much, and so to do whatever best awakens you to love.

- Mother Teresa

Love in action is a harsh and dreadful thing compared with love in dreams. Love in dreams is greedy for immediate action, rapidly performed and in the sight of all. Men will even give their lives if only the ordeal does not last long but is soon over, with all looking on and applauding as though on the stage. But active love is labor and fortitude…

- Fyodor Dostoyevsky (The Brothers Karamazov)

 Like spring water which keeps the same temperature summer and winter – so is God’s love. His love is a spring that never runs dry.

- Søren Kierkegaard

You're the color of the sky

Reflected in each store-front window pane

You're the whispering and the sighing of my tires in the rain

You're the hidden cost and the thing that's lost in everything I do

Yeah and I'll never stop looking for you

In the sunlight and the shadows

And the faces on the avenue

That's the way love is

Sky, sky blue and black

- Jackson Browne (Sky Blue and Black)
