“To one who has faith, no explanation is necessary.
To one without faith, no explanation is possible.”
St. Thomas Aquinas
~ Some people think only intellect counts: knowing how to solve problems, knowing how to get by, knowing how to identify an advantage and seize it.
But the functions of intellect are insufficient
without courage, love, friendship, compassion and empathy. ~
-Dean Koontz
~ The great gift of human beings is that we have the power of empathy. ~
-Meryl Streep

“God promises a safe landing but not a calm passage.”
Bulgarian Proverb
“Joy lies in the fight, in the attempt, in the suffering involved, not in the victory itself”
Mahatma Gandhi
“To love at all is to be vulnerable. Love anything, and your heart will certainly be wrung and possibly broken. If you want to make sure of keeping it intact, you must give your heart to no one, not even to an animal. Wrap it carefully round with hobbies and little luxuries; avoid all entanglements; lock it up safe in the casket or coffin of your selfishness. But in that casket- safe, dark, motionless, airless--it will change. It will not be broken; it will become unbreakable, impenetrable, irredeemable.”
Oneway
C.S. Lewis
“Love comes to those who still hope even though they've been disappointed,
to those who still believe even though they've been wounded,
to those who still love even though they've been hurt before.”
“Hope is the most exciting thing in life and if you honestly believe
that love is out there, it will come.
And even if it doesn't come straight away there is still that chance
all through your life that it will.”
Josh Hartnett
