Friedrich Nietzsche
“That which is done out of love is always beyond good and evil.”
Nietzsche

Laurence Sterne
“Writing, when properly managed, (as you may be sure I think mine is) is but a different name for conversation.”
Laurence Sterne

William Least Heat-Moon
“Suddenly, over the slope, as if tethered to a cord of air drawing quickly upward, came a Northern Harrier, motionless but for its rising. So still was the bird - wings, tail, head - it might have been a museum specimen. Then, as if atop the wind, it slid down the ridge, tilted a few times, veered, tacked up the hill, its wings hardly shifting. I though, if I could be that hawk for one hour I'd never again be just a man.”
William Least Heat Moon, PrairyErth

Viktor E. Frankl
“Frankl saw three possible sources for meaning: in work (doing something significant), in love (caring for another person), and in courage during difficult times. Suffering in and of itself is meaningless; we give our suffering meaning by the way in which we respond to it. At one point, Frankl writes that a person “may remain brave, dignified and unselfish, or in the bitter fight for self-preservation he may forget his human dignity”
Viktor E. Frankl, Man's Search for Meaning

“I need love more than hope or money, wisdom or a drink Because slow negative death withers the world — and only yes can turn the tide Because love has your face and body … and your hands are tender and your mouth is sweet — and God has made no other eyes like yours.”
Walter Benton, This Is My Beloved
