“I know love is worth the time it takes to find. Think of that when all the world seems made of walk up rooms and hands in empty pockets”
― Gerry Spence, Of Murder and Madness: A True Story

“Man created words to free himself”
― Leo Buscaglia, Love

“Do you know, I sometimes, catch myself wishing that I too were blind to the facts of life and only knew its fancies and illusions. They're wrong, all wrong, of course, and contrary to reason; but in the face of them my reason tells me, wrong and most wrong, that to dream and live illusions gives greater delight. And after all, delight is the wage for living. Without delight living is a worthless act. To labor at living and be unpaid is worse than to be dead. He who delights the most lives the most, and your dreams and unrealities are less disturbing to you and more gratifying than are my facts to me. I often doubt, I often doubt, the worthwhileness of reason. Dreams must be more substantial and satisfying. Emotional delight is more filling and lasting than intellectual delight by having the blues. Emotional delight is followed by no more than jaded senses which speedily recuperate. I envy you, I envy you”
― Jack London

“When man has love he is no longer at the mercy of forces greater than himself, for he, himself, becomes the powerful force”
― Leo Buscaglia, Love
