True love is delicate and kind, full of gentle perception and understanding, full of beauty and grace, full of joy unutterable. There should be some flavor of this in all our love for others. We are all one. We are one flesh in the Mystical Body as man and woman are said to be one flesh in marriage. With such a love one would see all things new; we would begin to see people as they really are, as God sees them.

To love with understanding and without understanding. To love blindly, and to folly. To see only what is loveable. To think only of these things. To see the best in everyone around, their virtues rather than their faults. To see Christ in them!

Love and ever more love is the only solution to every problem that comes up. If we love each other enough, we will bear with each other's faults and burdens. If we love enough, we are going to light a fire in the hearts of others. And it is love that will burn out the sins and hatreds that sadden us. It is love that will make us want to do great things for each other. No sacrifice and no suffering will then seem too much.

Love is not maximum emotion. Love is maximum commitment.

And we were making a film I truly believed in, and the message of the film is "How do you make love stay?" Because it doesn't matter if someone has a memory or not, you have to reinvent love every day.

A stable, loving family is something that should absolutely, fundamentally never ever be taken for granted

No man is worth your tears, but once you find one that is, he won't make you cry.

In other words to live Eternal Life in the full and final sense is to be with God as Christ is with him, and with each other as Christ is with us.

Even an undercurrent of division and strife will weaken that body of believers. The pastor of such a church ends up on a treadmill, expending a lot of effort and energy but making little progress.

It is good to realize that if love and peace can prevail on earth, and if we can teach our children to honor nature's gifts, the joys and beauties of the outdoors will be here forever.

Those who seek to profit by division don't stand a chance.

Every time I go to these racial forums, it is people who are alike, or it is progressives and liberals. So I said, 'At some point, we've got to bring the progressives and the liberals and the conservatives together.'
