the history of love, by nicole krauss
i haven’t posted any quotes in a while…this one has inspired me to search again for quotes to share:
“once upon a time there was a boy who loved a girl, and her laughter was a question he wanted to spend his whole life answering.”
loving a fool
this one is too good not to share. if only we could all approach life this way…
“I must learn to love the fool in me–the one who feels too much, talks too much, takes too many chances, wins sometimes and loses often, lacks self-control, loves and hates, hurts and gets hurt, promises and breaks promises, laughs and cries. It alone protects me against that utterly self-controlled, masterful tyrant whom I also harbor and who would rob me of human aliveness, humility, and dignity but for my fool.” — Theodore I. Rubin, MD
loved ones
oh, the comfort, the inexpressible comfort of feeling safe with a person; having neither to weigh thoughts nor measure words, but to pour them all out, just as they are, chaff and grain together, knowing that a faithful hand will take and sift them, keep what is worth keeping, and then, with a breath of kindness, blow the rest away.
–george eliot
it’s good to steal
i love this quote. i think it speaks to me since i am constantly inspired and get so many of my ideas from other people. i hope you enjoy it too…
a good quote
“I expect to pass through this world but once. Any good, therefore, that I can do or any kindness I can show to any fellow creature, let me do it now. Let me not defer nor neglect it for I shall not pass this way again.”
-Stephen Grellet
just had to share…i thought it was lovely.
