Oh what lies lurk in kisses!

Oh what lies lurk in kisses!

Summary

This quote suggests that a seemingly innocent and affectionate act like a kiss can often conceal hidden deceptions or falsehoods. It speaks to the idea that physical affection can sometimes be used as a faÃ§ade to hide ulterior motives or manipulate others. It serves as a cautionary reminder to be wary of unearned or insincere displays of affection, as they may carry concealed intentions that can lead to deceit or harm.

Sometimes apparent resemblance of character will bring two men together and for a certain time unite them. But their mistake gradually becomes evident, and they are astonished to find themselves not only far apart, but even repelled, in some sort, at all their points of contact.

Friendship is unnecessary, like philosophy, like art, like the universe itself (for God did not need to create). It has no survival value; rather it is one of those things which give value to survival. p.71Affection is taken as the image when God is represented as our Father; Eros, when Christ is represented as the Bridegroom of the Church. p.78The little pockets of early Christians survived because they cared exclusively for the love of the brethren and stopped their ears to the opinion of the Pagan society all around them. p.70Friendship is even, if you like, angelic. But man needs to be triply protected by humility if he is to eat the bread of angels without risk. p.87
