“The best of you
I like more than you think.
the others don't count
except that they have fingers and heads
and some of them eyes and most of them legs and all of them
good and bad dreams
and a way to go.”
― Charles Bukowski, Love Is a Dog from Hell

“And now here is my secret, a very simple secret: It is only with the heart that one can see rightly; what is essential is invisible to the eye.”
― Antoine de Saint-Exupéry, The Little Prince

“It would have been better to come back at the same hour,” said the fox. “If, for example, you came at four o’clock in the afternoon, then at three o’clock I shall begin to be happy. I shall feel happier and happier as the hour advances. At four o’clock, I shall already be worrying and jumping about. I shall show you how happy I am! But if you come at just any time, I shall never know at what hour my heart is to be ready to greet you . . . One must observe the proper rites . . .”
― Antoine de Saint-Exupéry, The Little Prince

“The birds of night peck at the first stars
that flash like my soul when I love you.”
― Pablo Neruda, Twenty Love Poems and a Song of Despair
