“Science may have found a cure for most evils; but it has found no remedy for the worst of them all -- the apathy of human beings.”

“To love at all is to be vulnerable. Love anything and your heart will be wrung and possibly broken. If you want to make sure of keeping it intact you must give it to no one, not even an animal. Wrap it carefully round with hobbies and little luxuries; avoid all entanglements. Lock it up safe in the casket or coffin of your selfishness. But in that casket, safe, dark, motionless, airless, it will change. It will not be broken; it will become unbreakable, impenetrable, irredeemable. To love is to be vulnerable.”

“There is nothing I would not do for those who are really my friends. I have no notion of loving people by halves, it is not my nature.”
