My nature is subdued to what it works in, like the dyer's hand.

Stephen King

There is something inexpressibly charming in falling in love and, surely, the whole pleasure lies in the fact that love isn't lasting

Moliere

Love is an uphill climb, but once you know yourself and like yourself just as you are, it's all downhill from there.

Endurance is nobler than strength, and patience than beauty.

John Ruskin
