Love is such a grace as we know not how to be without. A soldier may as well be without his weapons, an artist without his pencil, a musician without his instrument, as a Christian can be without love.

Love is a holy fuel. It fires the affections, steels the courage, and carries a Christian above the love of life, and the fear of death.

When love becomes what Christianity is all about, we can make no sense of Jesus's death and resurrection.

So long as I have something to do, someone to love, and something to hope for, I shall be happy.

The happiness you feel is in direct proportion to the love you give.

When you make loving others the story of your life, there's never a final chapter, because the legacy continues. You lend your light to one person, and he or she shines it on another and another and another. And I know for sure that in the final analysis of our lives- when the to-do lists are no more, when the frenzy is finished, when our e-mail inboxes are empty- the only thing that will have any lasting value is whether we've loved others and whether they've loved us.

Connect. Embrace. Liberate. Love somebody. Just one person. And then spread that to two. And as many as you can. You'll see the difference it makes.

Love is the essential existential fact. It is our ultimate reality and our purpose on earth.

The happiness you feel is in direct proportion to the love you are able to give.

When you make loving others the story of your life, there's never a final chapter, because the legacy continues. You lend your light to one person, and he or she shines it on another and another and another.
