“Since love is not a thing, it is not lost when given. You can offer your love completely to hundreds of people and still retain the same love you had originally. It is like knowledge.

“Love sought is good, But giv’n unsought is better.” ~ William Shakespeare

“I don’t want to live – I want to love first, and live incidentally.” ~ Zelda Fitzgerald
