It
is not how much you do, but how much Love you put into the doing
that matters.
Mother
Teresa of Calcutta
Where there is hatred, let us sow love; Where there is doubt, faith;
Where there is despair, hope; Where there is sadness, joy.
Francis
of Assisi
At every moment, Love’s voice talks to us from left and from
right. All we have to do is to know how to listen.
Rumi
There is one way of breathing that is shameful and constricted.
Then there’s another way: a breath of love that takes you
all the way to infinity.
Rumi
Beginning with the early dawn of each day, I will radiate joy to
everyone I meet. I will be mental sunshine for all who cross my
path. Before the unfailing light of my cheer, darkness will take
flight.
Paramahansa
Yogananda
Just as a mother with her own life
Protects her child, her only child, from harm,
So within yourself let grow
A boundless love for all creatures.
Let your love flow outward through the universe,
To its height, its depth, its broad extent,
A limitless love, without hatred or enmity.
Sutta
Nipata
Too often we underestimate the power of a touch, a smile, a kind
word, a listening ear, an honest compliment, or the small act of
caring, all of which have the potential to turn a life around.
Leo
Buscaglia
First have love in your heart; then do whatever you want.
Paraphrase
of St. Augustine
Think not you can direct the course of love, for love, if it finds
you worthy, directs your course.
Kahlil
Gibran
Love feels no burden, thinks nothing of trouble, attempts what is
above its strength, pleads no excuse of impossibility; for it thinks
all things lawful for itself and all things possible.
Thomas
a Kempis
Neither a lofty degree of intelligence nor imagination nor both
together go to the making of genius. Love, Love, Love, that is the
soul of genius.
Wolfgang
Amadeus Mozart
Let yourself be silently drawn by the pull of what you really love.
Rumi
Love is patient and kind; love is not jealous or boastful; it is
not arrogant or rude. Love does not insist on its own way; it is
not irritable or resentful…. Love always protects, always
trusts, always hopes, always perseveres. Love never fails.
1
Corinthians 13:4-8
If you don’t have love in your heart, you have the worst kind
of heart trouble.
Bob
Hope
If you judge people, you have no time to love them.
Mother
Teresa of Calcutta
A joyful heart is the normal result of a heart burning with love.
Mother
Teresa of Calcutta
If you were going to die soon and had only one phone call you could
make, who would you call and what would you say? And why are you
waiting?
Stephen
Levine
The more I can love everything—the trees, the land, the water,
my fellow men, women, and children, and myself—the more health
I am going to experience.
Carl Simonton
Every part of this earth is sacred to my people. Every shining pine
needle, every sandy shore, every mist in the dark woods, every meadow.
All are holy in the memory and the experience of my people. The
perfumed flowers are our sisters. The bear, the deer, the great
eagle, these are our brothers. We love this earth as a newborn loves
its mother’s heartbeat.
Chief
Seattle
Feel the love of God; then in every person you will see the face
of the Father, the light of love which is in all. You will find
a magic, living relationship uniting the trees, the sky, the stars,
all people, and all living things; and you will feel a oneness with
them. This is the code of divine love.
Paramahansa
Yogananda
No matter what the question, Love is the answer. No matter what
the pain or illness, Love is the answer. No matter what the loss,
Love is the answer. No matter what the fear, Love is the answer.
Gerald
Jampolsky & Diane Cirincione
Be so drunk with the love of God day and night that you will know
nothing else. And give that love to all.
Paramahansa
Yogananda
Don’t hold to anger, hurt or pain. They steal your energy
and keep you from love.
Leo
Buscaglia
You may be exhausted with work, even kill yourself, but unless your
work is interwoven with love, it is useless…. The important
thing is not how much we accomplish, but how much love we put into
our deeds every day.
Mother
Teresa of Calcutta
Be kind and merciful. Let no one ever come to you without coming
away better and happier. Be the living expression of God’s
kindness: kindness in your face, kindness in your eyes, kindness
in your smile, kindness in your warm greeting.
Mother
Teresa of Calcutta
Love is patient, love is kind.
1
Corinthians 13:4
Above all, I was shown that love is supreme. I saw that truly without
love we are nothing. We are here to help each other, to care for
each other, to understand, forgive, and serve one another. We are
here to have love for every person born on earth.
