Quote by Terry Goodkind

“Rising to her feet, she shot the Bird Man a furious glare, and then stormed off toward Savidlin's house. She was glad to be away from Richard, to be away from watching those girls pawing him. Her fingernails dug into her palms, but she didn't notice as she marched past the happy people. The dancers danced, the drummers drummed, the children laughed. People she passed wished her well. She wanted one of them to say something mean so she would have an excuse to hit someone.”

“There they were, the movers and shakers of Benjamin Franklin Hight - the sports stars, the cheerleaders, the good, the great, the gorgeous - bent over their pizzas.

I looked at poor, cursed Lisa who had been sprayed with sex appeal at birth. She had gleaming teeth and long, raven-black curls. She threw back her head and laughed with diamond-studded joy. "When do you think the curse takes effect?" I asked. "Not in our lifetime," Trish answered.”

“Love is one of the most divine qualities. One can enter into God from many doors, and love is one of the most beautiful doors to enter into God. Love is the most beautiful path towards God, but one has to go on purifying the path of love. The ordinary love is full of jealousy, anger, hatred, possessiveness, ego and domination. These are the parasites of love, which have to be removed so that love becomes purer, alive and intense. First love is a relationship with another person and then love becomes a friendship. Then love becomes only a loving quality of our heart, and ultimately love becomes love itself. We become love. That is divine love. The path of love ultimately leads to God.”
