It is not the mountain we conquer, but ourselves.
-- Sir Edmund Hillary
A man is a little thing while he works by and for himself; but when he gives voice to the rules of love and justice, he is godlike.
Ralph Waldo Emerson
Love Quotes
What was my body to me? A kind of flunkey in my service. Let but my anger wax hot, my love grow exalted, my hatred collect in me, and that boasted solidarity between me and my body was gone.
Antoine De Saint-Exupery
Love Quotes
What a profound significance small things assume when the woman we love conceals them from us.
Marcel Proust
Love Quotes
Envy among other ingredients has a mixture of the love of justice in it. We are more angry at undeserved than at deserved good-fortune.
William Hazlitt
Love Quotes
Love is much nicer to be in than an automobile accident, a tight girdle, a higher tax bracket or a holding pattern over Philadelphia.
Judith Viorst
Love Quotes
What men have called friendship is only a social arrangement, a mutual adjustment of interests, an interchange of services given and received; it is, in sum, simply a business from which those involved propose to derive a steady profit for their own self-love.
Francois De La Rochefoucauld
Love Quotes
Marrying for love may be a bit risky, but it is so honest that God can't help but smile on it.
Josh Billings
Love Quotes
God has given you your country as cradle, and humanity as mother; you cannot rightly love your brethren of the cradle if you love not the common mother.
Giuseppe Mazzini
Love Quotes
Man will do many things to get himself loved; he will do all things to get himself envied.
Mark Twain
Love Quotes
Love is much nicer to be in than an automobile accident, a tight girdle, a higher tax bracket, or a holding pattern over Philadelphia.
Judith Viorst
Love Quotes
It is a curious thought, but it is only when you see people looking ridiculous that you realize just how much you love them.
Agatha Christie
Love Quotes
A scholar who cherishes the love of comfort is not fit to be deemed a scholar.
Lao-Tzu
Love Quotes

Love Quotes
There is a pleasure in the pathless woods, There is a rapture on the lonely shore, There is society, where none intrudes. By the deep sea, and music in its roars; I love not man the less, but nature more.
George Gordon
Love Quotes
When you plant lettuce, if it does not grow well, you don't blame the lettuce. You look for reasons it is not doing well. It may need fertilizer, or more water, or less sun. You never blame the lettuce. Yet if we have problems with our friends or our family, we blame the other person. But if we know how to take care of them, they will grow well, like the lettuce. Blaming has no positive effect at all, nor does trying to persuade using reason and argument. That is my experience. If you understand, and you show that you understand, you can love, and the situation will change
Ven. Thich Nhat Hanh
Love Quotes
One reason we should love our enemies is that we made them ourselves. Another reason is that they keep us on our toes, a third reason is that we should make them our friends.

I have found the paradox that if I love until it hurts, then there is no hurt, but only more love.
