爱
The only way to do great work is to love what you do.
"The only way to do great work is to love what you do."
Love is the only thing that can fill the emptiness of existence.
Writing is another way of making love.
"To love is to risk not being loved in return. To hope is to risk pain. To try is to risk failure, but risk must be taken because the greatest hazard in life is to risk nothing."
The past is a source of knowledge, and the future is a source of hope. Love of the past implies faith in the future.
The only obsession everyone wants: 'love.' People think that in falling in love they make themselves whole? The Platonic union of souls? I think otherwise. I think you're whole before you begin. And the love fractures you. You're whole, and then you're cracked open.
To know this world is to love it, and to love it is to grieve for it.
There is no justice in love, no proportion in it, and there need not be.
You don't have to have a reason to love somebody.
Love is not kind or honest and does not contribute to happiness in any reliable way.
"Love is a kind of pain. If you don’t feel pain, it’s not love."
What's terrible is to pretend that second-rate is first-rate. To pretend that you don't need love when you do; or you like your work when you know quite well you're capable of better.
Love is or it ain't. Thin love ain't love at all.
Love is not about finding a perfect person, but about learning to see an imperfect person perfectly.
