Tag "love"

← Back to all tags

The tendrils of my soul are twined
With thine, though many a mile apart.
And thine in close coiled circuits wind
Around the needle of my heart.
Constant as Daniel, strong as Grove.
Ebullient throughout its depths like Smee,
My heart puts forth its tide of love,
And all its circuits close in thee.
O tell me, when along the line
From my full heart the message flows,
What currents are induced in thine?
One click from thee will end my woes.
Through many a volt the Weber flew,
And clicked this answer back to me;
I am thy Farad staunch and true,
Charged to a volt with love for thee.

-J.C. Maxwell, Valentine from A Telegraph Clerk to a Telegraph Clerk [1860]

For is it not written: from out of the darkness comes an even greater light – and the greatest love and courage comes from testing times. And that salvation and redemption and tenderness of spirit is what we seek to walk fearlessly towards.

-Stuart Wilde

The three great classes of symbols which I propose to consider, appeal to three deep cravings of the self, three great expressions of man’s restlessness, which only mystic truth can fully satisfy. The first is the craving which makes him a pilgrim and wanderer. It is the longing to go out from his normal world in search of a lost home, a “better country”; an Eldorado, a Sarras, a Heavenly Syon. The next is that craving of heart for heart, of the soul for its perfect mate, which makes him a lover. The third is the craving for inward purity and perfection, which makes him an ascetic, and in the last resort a saint.

Alas, how love can trifle with itself!

Dogs have taught me about unconditional love, but what I've learned from cats over the years is that it's important too, if you can, [to] give the kind of love someone is able to accept, that they want. Too often we want to give the kind of love we want to give or the kind that makes us feel good. Cats in particular seem hardwired to only be able to receive the kind of love they want, regardless of whether or not you want to be all snuggly and kissy-face with them.

So we made our own computer out of macaroni pieces
And it did our thinking while we lived our lives
It counted up our feelings and divided them up even
And it called that calculation perfect love.
Didn't even know that love was bigger
Didn't even know that love was so.

-Regina Spektor, The Calculation

It is said that each time we embrace someone warmly, we gain an extra day of life. So please embrace me now.

A lady's imagination is very rapid; it jumps from admiration to love, from love to matrimony in a moment.

Have you ever been in love? Horrible isn't it? It makes you so vulnerable. It opens your chest and it opens up your heart and it means that someone can get inside you and mess you up.

It is not a lack of love, but a lack of friendship that makes unhappy marriages.
