“Love is a verb, not a noun. It is active. Love is not just feelings of passion and romance. It is behavior. If a man lies to you, he is behaving badly and unlovingly toward you. He is disrespecting you and your relationship. The words “I love you” are not enough to make up for that.

“To stroll is a science, it is the gastronomy of the eye. To walk is to vegetate, to stroll is to live.... To stroll is to enjoy, it is to assume a mind-set, it is to admire the sublime pictures of unhappiness, of love, of joy, of graceful or grotesque portraits; it is to plunge one's vision to the depths of a thousand existences: young, it is to desire everything; old, it is to live the life of the young, to marry their passions.” MindEyeYoungJoyDesirePassionEnjoyWalksExistenceVisionWalkingThousandBehaviorAssumingDepthAdmireLive LifeUnhappinessLeisurePortraitsSublimePlungeGrotesqueMind Set Author:Honore de Balzac
“There is nothing so necessary, but at the same time there is nothing more difficult (I know it by experience) for you young fellows, than to know how to behave yourselves prudently towards those whom you do not like. Your passions are warm, and your heads are light; you hate all those who oppose your views, either of ambition or love; and a rival, in either, is almost a synonymous term for any enemy.” KnowsLightYoungHatePassionDifficultTermViewsEnemyKnow HowLike YouBehaviorAmbitionFellowsWarmBehaveRivalsRivalry Author:Lord Chesterfield
“Surrendered people enjoy life, relish their personal development, and value their friends. They may have an exceptionally good career and be wealthy, but they are more concerned with meaning and fulfillment. The drive to acquire money and power is a behavior that drains people of their passion and emotional connection to others.

“I always liked creativity, whether it was to draw or sew - any creative assignment I was getting from school, or just on my own. I love people and behaviors, and I'm interested and fascinated by why we do what we do. And I wanted to be a therapist, to be honest. Maybe wirking in film combines the two worlds, in a not super-linear way, but it definitely feeds both my two passions.” PeopleWorldSchoolFilmPassionCreativityCreativeHonestBehaviorBeing Honest Author:Moran Atias
“You know, Miss Holly, you look very dramatic like that, backlit by the fire. Very attractive, if I may say so. I know you shared a moment passionne with Artemis which he subsequently fouled up with his typical boorish behavior. Let me just throw something out there for you to consider while we're chasing the probe: I share Artemis's passion but not his boorishness. No pressure; just think about it.
