Love is the will to extend one's self for the purpose of nurturing one's own or another's spiritual growth... Love is as love does. Love is an act of will -- namely, both an intention and an action. Will also implies choice. We do not have to love. We choose to love.

I never found anyone who was good enough, who I could trust enough.

Christine Keeler

To live is to be musical, starting with the blood dancing in your veins. Everything living has a rhythm. Do you feel your music?

Michael Jackson

The musical emotion springs precisely from the fact that at each moment the composer withholds or adds more or less than the listener anticipates on the basis of a pattern that he thinks he can guess, but that he is incapable of wholly divining. If the composer withholds more than we anticipate, we experience a delicious falling sensation; we feel we have been torn from a stable point on the musical ladder and thrust into the void. When the composer withholds less, the opposite occurs: he forces us to perform gymnastic exercises more skillful than our own.

Claude LeviStrauss

The functions of the family in a highly differentiated society are not to be interpreted as functions directly on behalf of the society, but on behalf of personality.

Talcott Parsons

Your life changes the moment you make a new, congruent, and committed decision.

Anthony Robbins

What is does a person profit if they gain the whole world and lose their soul.

Bible

You can do more good by being good than any other way.

John Wooden

Many lick before they bite.

Proverb

If I am not allowed to laugh in heaven, I don't want to go there.

Martin Luther

The high sentiments always win in the end, the leaders who offer blood, toil, tears and sweat always get more out of their followers than those who offer safety and a good time. When it comes to the pinch, human beings are heroic.

George Orwell, The Art of Donald

Our modern states are preparing for war without even knowing the future enemy.

Alfred Adler

I had grown a thin mustache, I was a full-grown man, and yet I was completely helpless and without a goal in life.

Hermann Hesse
