    Martin Luther King Jr.
    “Darkness cannot drive out darkness: only light can do that. Hate cannot drive out hate: only love can do that.”
    Martin Luther King Jr., A Testament of Hope: The Essential Writings and Speeches

    Bob Marley
    “Only once in your life, I truly believe, you find someone who can completely turn your world around. You tell them things that you’ve never shared with another soul and they absorb everything you say and actually want to hear more. You share hopes for the future, dreams that will never come true, goals that were never achieved and the many disappointments life has thrown at you. When something wonderful happens, you can’t wait to tell them about it, knowing they will share in your excitement. They are not embarrassed to cry with you when you are hurting or laugh with you when you make a fool of yourself. Never do they hurt your feelings or make you feel like you are not good enough, but rather they build you up and show you the things about yourself that make you special and even beautiful. There is never any pressure, jealousy or competition but only a quiet calmness when they are around. You can be yourself and not worry about what they will think of you because they love you for who you are. The things that seem insignificant to most people such as a note, song or walk become invaluable treasures kept safe in your heart to cherish forever. Memories of your childhood come back and are so clear and vivid it’s like being young again. Colours seem brighter and more brilliant. Laughter seems part of daily life where before it was infrequent or didn’t exist at all. A phone call or two during the day helps to get you through a long day’s work and always brings a smile to your face. In their presence, there’s no need for continuous conversation, but you find you’re quite content in just having them nearby. Things that never interested you before become fascinating because you know they are important to this person who is so special to you. You think of this person on every occasion and in everything you do. Simple things bring them to mind like a pale blue sky, gentle wind or even a storm cloud on the horizon. You open your heart knowing that there’s a chance it may be broken one day and in opening your heart, you experience a love and joy that you never dreamed possible. You find that being vulnerable is the only way to allow your heart to feel true pleasure that’s so real it scares you. You find strength in knowing you have a true friend and possibly a soul mate who will remain loyal to the end. Life seems completely different, exciting and worthwhile. Your only hope and security is in knowing that they are a part of your life.”
    Bob Marley

    Elizabeth Gilbert
    “People think a soul mate is your perfect fit, and that's what everyone wants. But a true soul mate is a mirror, the person who shows you everything that is holding you back, the person who brings you to your own attention so you can change your life.

    A true soul mate is probably the most important person you'll ever meet, because they tear down your walls and smack you awake. But to live with a soul mate forever? Nah. Too painful. Soul mates, they come into your life just to reveal another layer of yourself to you, and then leave.

    A soul mates purpose is to shake you up, tear apart your ego a little bit, show you your obstacles and addictions, break your heart open so new light can get in, make you so desperate and out of control that you have to transform your life, then introduce you to your spiritual master...”
    Elizabeth Gilbert, Eat, Pray, Love

  • #4
    Beth Kempton
    “Freedom wanders in the landscape of the mind, and nourishes the deepest yearnings of the soul.”
    Beth Kempton, Freedom Seeker: Live More. Worry Less. Do What You Love.

  • #5
    Nikki Rowe
    “I think it's important as a women to know who you are and what you deserve. We, ourselves set the boundaries of what we choose to accept.
    Instead of complaining about the men who's actions don't fit your own & move on and find one that does.”
    Nikki Rowe

  • #6
    Kahlil Gibran
    “Say not, “I have found the truth,” but rather, “I have found a truth.”
    Say not, “I have found the path of the soul.” Say rather, “I have met the soul walking upon my path.”
    For the soul walks upon all paths.
    The soul walks not upon a line, neither does it grow like a reed.
    The soul unfolds itself, like a lotus of countless petals.”
    Kahlil Gibran, The Prophet

  • #7
    Kasie West
    “We rarely find a depth by looking inside of ourselves for it. Depth is found in what we can learn from the people and things around us. Everyone, everything, has a story, Gia. When you learn those stories, you learn experiences that fill you up, that expand your understanding. You add layers to your soul.”
    Kasie West, The Fill-In Boyfriend

  • #8
    Sanober  Khan
    “depth and substance.
    the two most exquisite qualities.
    be it in a poem
    or a person.”
    Sanober Khan

  • #9
    Kahlil Gibran
    “The hidden well-spring of your soul must needs rise and run murmuring to the sea;
    And the treasure of your infinite depths would be revealed to your eyes.
    But let there be no scales to weigh your unknown treasure;
    And seek not the depths of your knowledge with staff or sounding line.
    For self is a sea boundless and measureless.
    Say not, “I have found the truth,” but rather, “I have found a truth.”
    Say not, “I have found the path of the soul.” Say rather, “I have met the soul walking upon my path.”
    For the soul walks upon all paths.
    The soul walks not upon a line, neither does it grow like a reed.
    The soul unfolds itself, like a lotus of countless petals.”
    Kahlil Gibran, The Prophet

    Nikki Rowe
    “My soul is being whisked away again, to a place unfamiliar and not many know my name but its calling and following that instinct is all i know.”
    Nikki Rowe

  • #11
    “If you want your life to have depth and meaning, be present, be mindful, and live with intention.”
    Akiroq Brost

  • #12
    “If you're going to do anything make it meaningful.”
    Akiroq Brost

    Nikki Rowe
    “Some wounds so deep, words can’t even begin to decipher the consuming ache inside my soul, this is why I have art.”
    Nikki Rowe

  • #14
    Marilynne Robinson
    “I say this because there was a seriousness about her that seemed almost like a kind of anger. As though she might say, "I came here from whatever unspeakable distance and from whatever unimaginable otherness just to oblige your prayers. Now say something with a little meaning in it.”
    Marilynne Robinson, Gilead

  • #15
    Craig D. Lounsbrough
    “Being thankful for something instantly grants that thing a depth it would not have had were I not thankful for it. And while I can certainly live without having had that kind of depth, in turn I will have died without ever having had any kind of life.”
    Craig D. Lounsbrough

  • #16
    “Sensuality us how we express our depth. The deeper we meet ourselves, the more sensual we become.”
    Lebo Grand

  • #17
    Avijeet Das
    “There are moments in our life when we meet someone and we feel as if we have known them all our lives. It seems astounding really to know that you can understand each other so well. It feels fascinating when you find out that even if you both are meeting for the first time, there is already an amazing chemistry happening between you two! And what is captivating is the depth to which you already know each other; almost like you both know each other inside out. When you both look into each other's eyes, you both already know what is going on in each other's minds. As if words are not required at all to understand the thoughts, feelings, and emotions of the other person. It feels as if you both know each other from centuries ago in time! It feels absolutely exhilarating when you do find this person in your life. And then your life becomes totally awesome and amazing.”
    Avijeet Das

  • #18
    “If you’re afraid of intensity (i.e. depth of sensuality/passion) you’re missing out on new levels. Levels are opportunities to grow and to tap into deeper and more soul-nourishing experiences than most people will ever have in their lifetime.”
    Lebo Grand intensity, sensuality, soul-nourishing, growth, levels, level up, intimacy, depth, passio

  • #19
    Elizabeth Barrett Browning
    “It is rather when
    We gloriously forget ourselves, and plunge
    Soul-forward, headlong, into a book’s profound,
    Impassioned for its beauty and salt of truth—
    ’Tis then we get the right good from a book.”
    Elizabeth Barrett Browning, Aurora Leigh

  • #20
    Hrishikesh Agnihotri
    “The length, the depth and the strength of your relationship is determined more by your compatibility in the difficult times than by your compatibility in the better times.”
    Hrishikesh Agnihotri

  • #21
    Munia Khan
    “Night after night on starry wings
    Night lovers soared so high
    Miles apart, across the oceans
    Their love forgot to sigh
    In heavenly flight’s timelessness
    That highest height treasured
    Into the deepest of all blues
    Their depth of love measured.

    From the poem 'The Ballad of Night Lovers”
    Munia Khan, To Evince the Blue

  • #22
    Nikki Rowe
    “Our hearts speak the same language but more importantly our souls share the same voice.”
    Nikki Rowe

  • #23
    Sanober  Khan
    “i would rather have
    feelings without words
    than words without feelings.”
    Sanober Khan

  • #25
    Sarah Dessen
    “There is never a time or place for true love. It happens accidentally, in a heartbeat, in a single flashing, throbbing moment.”
    Sarah Dessen, The Truth About Forever

  • #26
    Amit Ray
    “Searching outside of you is Samsara (the world). Searching within you leads to Nirvana.”
    Amit Ray, Yoga and Vipassana: An Integrated Life Style

  • #27
    Amit Ray
    “The ripples of the kind heart are the highest blessings of the Universe.”
    Amit Ray, Yoga and Vipassana: An Integrated Life Style

  • #28
    T.S. Eliot
    “I said to my soul, be still and wait without hope, for hope would be hope for the wrong thing; wait without love, for love would be love of the wrong thing; there is yet faith, but the faith and the love are all in the waiting. Wait without thought, for you are not ready for thought: So the darkness shall be the light, and the stillness the dancing.”
    T.S. Eliot

  • #29
    J. Krishnamurti
    “We carry about us the burden of what thousands of people have said and the memories of all our misfortunes. To abandon all that is to be alone, and the mind that is alone is not only innocent but young -- not in time or age, but young, innocent, alive at whatever age -- and only such a mind can see that which is truth and that which is not measurable by words.”
    J. Krishnamurti

    Roy T. Bennett
