“Devoutly the teachers point out huge fumigated domes; but beneath the statues there's no love, no love beneath the eyes set in crystal. Love is there, in flesh ripped by thirst, in the tiny hut struggling against the flood; love is there, in ditches where snakes of hunger wrestle, in the sad sea that rocks dead gulls, and in the darkest stinging kiss under pillows.” EyeLove IsStruggleTeacherSeaRocksHugeKissingHungerFleshTinyFloodThirstSnakesStatuesCrystalsPillowRippedNo LoveHutsDomesGulls Author:Federico Garcia Lorca
“Serviceis love in action, love "made flesh"; service is the body, the incarnation of love. Love is the impetus, service the act, and creativity the result with many by-products.” LoveMadeBodyActionLove IsResultsCreativityProductsFleshIncarnationImpetusAction Love Author:Sarah-Patton Boyle
“Friendship after the flesh is very easily destroyed on some slight pretext, since it is not held firm by spiritual perception. But when a person is spiritually awakened, even if something irritates him, the bond of love is not dissolved; rekindling himself with warmth of the love of God, he quickly recovers himself and with great joy seeks his neighbor's love, even though he has been gravely wronged or insulted by him. For sweetness of God completely consumes the bitterness of the quarrel.” IfsPersonsHas BeensSpiritualJoyPeaceLove IsPerceptionNeighborFleshDestroyedGod LoveFirmBitternessWarmthSweetnessQuarrelsAwakenedInsultedPretextGreat JoyWrongedBonds Of Love Author:Diadochos of Photiki
