“Love looks not with the eyes, but with the mind; And therefore is wing'd Cupid painted blind. Nor hath love's mind of any judgment taste; Wings and no eyes figure unheedy haste: And therefore is love said to be a child, Because in choice he is so oft beguil'd.”
― William Shakespeare, A Midsummer Night’s Dream

“Darkness cannot drive out darkness: only light can do that. Hate cannot drive out hate: only love can do that.”

“Friendship is certainly the finest balm for the pangs of disappointed love.”
