"Love is the bridge that leads from the I sense to the We, and there is a paradox about personal love. Love of another individual opens a new relation between the personality and the world. The lover responds in a new way to nature and may even write poetry. Love is affirmation; it motivates the yes responses and the sense of wider communication. Love casts out fear, and in the security of this togetherness we find contentment, courage. We no longer fear the age-old haunting questions: "Who am I?" "Why am I?" "Where am I going?" - and having cast out fear, we can be honest and charitable."

"Two conflicting forces cannot exist in one human heart. When doubt reigns, faith cannot abide. Where hatred rules, love is crowded out. Where selfishness rules, there love cannot dwell. When worry is present, trust cannot crowd its way in."
"Love is the keynote, Joy is the music, Knowledge is the performer, the Infinite All is the composer and audience."
"Love is a state of Being. Your love is not outside; it is deep within you. You can never lose it, and it cannot leave you. It is not dependent on some other body, some external form."
"God's love is too great to be confined to any one side of a conflict or to any one religion."
"My love is something valuable to me which I ought not to throw away without reflection."
"For love is no part of the dreamworld. Love belongs to Desire, and Desire is always cruel."
"Love is supposed to bring you peace and happiness. If you are not feeling this in a relationship, you are living an illusion."
