Above all, be true to yourself, and if you cannot put your heart in it, take yourself out.

We are all a little weird and life’s a little weird, and when we find someone whose weirdness is compatible with ours, we join up with them and fall in mutual weirdness and call it love.
Dr. Suess
We come to love not by finding a perfect person, but by learning to see an imperfect person perfectly.
-Sam Keen
When it comes to going after what you love in life, don’t take no for an answer.

Prime Minister: Whenever I get gloomy with the state of the world, I think about the arrivals gate at Heathrow Airport. General opinion’s starting to make out that we live in a world of hatred and greed, but I don’t see that. It seems to me that love is everywhere. Often, it’s not particularly dignified or newsworthy, but it’s always there - fathers and sons, mothers and daughters, husbands and wives, boyfriends, girlfriends, old friends. When the planes hit the Twin Towers, as far as I know, none of the phone calls from the people on board were messages of hate or revenge - they were all messages of love. If you look for it, I’ve got a sneaking suspicion… love actually is all around.

True love doesn’t happen right away; it’s an ever-growing process. It develops after you’ve gone through many ups and downs, when you’ve suffered together, cried together, laughed together.

Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. It is not rude, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. Love does not delight in evil, but rejoices with the truth. It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres. Love never fails. 1 Corinthians 13:4

Perhaps startled
or distracted
Or forgetting
That for a short while
they’d been in love forever
With Szymborska, from the New Yorker
You never lose by loving, you only lose by holding back.

the world outside your arms
is cold and windy
a summer breeze
becomes a winter storn
And then you smile at me
and almost instantly
the weather turns warm
Slowly the green grass
starts to grow
Softly the sunshine
of your smile
Melts the snow
Burt Bacharach and Hal David
