words on LOVE

1. This life is yours. Take the power to choose what you want to do and do it well. Take the power to love what you want in life and love it honestly. Take the power to walk in the forest and be a part of nature. Take the power to control your own life. No one else can do it for you. Take the power to make your life happy. --Susan Polis Schutz (in The Artist Who Paints Disappearing Rain Forests)

2. Only when we give joyfully, without hesitation or thought of gain, can we truly know what love means. --Leo Buscaglia (in Finding A Lifeline & A Friend) 3. Love is a force more formidable than any other. It is invisible, it cannot be seen or measured, yet it is powerful enough to transform you in a moment, and offer you more joy than any material possession could. --Barbara DeAngelis (in Selling 1 House to Serve 30 Villages) 4.For every beauty there is an eye somewhere to see it. For every truth there is an ear somewhere to hear it. For every love there is a heart somewhere to receive it. --Ivan Panin (in Turning Everest's Trash Into Treasure) 5.I will love the light for it shows me the way. Yet I will endure the darkness for it shows me the stars. --Og Mandino (in Lighting Up the World with LED) 6.Success is not the key to happiness. Happiness is the key to success. If youlove what you are doing, you will be successful. --Albert Schweitzer (in Bhutan) 7.The beginning of love is to let those we love be perfectly themselves, and not to twist them to fit our own image. Otherwise we love only the reflection of ourselves we find in them. --Thomas Merton (in Love's Beginning) 8.Life without love is like a tree without blossom and fruit. --Kahlil Gibran(in Gorillas of Saharan Africa) 9.You are what you love, not what loves you. --Adaptation (in What You Love) 10.Wisdom tells me I am nothing. Love tells me I am everything. And between the two my life flows. --Nisargadatta Maharaj (in Untitled)
