“Yes, death. Death must be so beautiful. To lie in the soft brown earth, with the grasses waving above one's head, and listen to silence. To have no yesterday, and no to-morrow. To forget time, to forget life, to be at peace. You can help me. You can open for me the portals of death's house, for love is always with you, and love is stronger than death is.”
― Oscar Wilde, The Canterville Ghost

“La unión de dos almas sinceras
no admite impedimentos.
No es amor el amor
que se transforma con el cambio,
o se aleja con la distancia.
¡Oh, no! Es un faro siempre firme,
que desafía a las tempestades sin estremecerse.
Es la estrella para el navio a la deriva,
de valor incalculable, aunque se mída su altura.
No es amor bufón del tiempo, aunque los rosados labios y
mejillas caigan bajo el golpe de su guadaña.
El amor no se altera con sus breves horas y semanas,
sino que se afianza incluso hasta en el borde del abismo.
Sí estoy equivocado y se demuestra,
yo nunca nada escribí, y nadie jamás amó.”
― William Shakespeare, Shakespeare's Sonnets

“Everything that irritates us about others can lead us to an understanding of ourselves.”
― Carl Gustav Jung

“Each one of us here today will at one time in our lives look upon a loved one who is in need and ask the same question: We are willing to help, Lord, but what, if anything, is needed? For it is true we can seldom help those closest to us. Either we don't know what part of ourselves to give or, more often than not, the part we have to give is not wanted. And so it is those we live with and should know who elude us. But we can still love them - we can love completely without complete understanding.”
― Norman Maclean, A River Runs Through It and Other Stories
