• Value God and his love more than all the world, though there were millions of them. He valued you before the world, and therefore is beforehand with you in his love. He not only loved you from everlasting, (whereas your love is but of yesterday,) but in the valuation of it, he loved you before all worlds, and preferred you to all worlds: though you loved the world first, before you loved him.

• The world keeps turnin'
  It gets merry like a merry go 'round
  It gets cold like a frozen winter
  Well I change like summer fall
  But I know love is all in all
  Seeds we're always sowing
  The grace is always blowing
  We've just got to lift the sail
  And we're bound to hit the shore
  We'll finally calm this storm.

"Set me like a seal upon thy heart, love is as strong as death."

• To the Christian, love is the works of love. To say that love is a feeling or anything of the kind is an unchristian conception of love. That is the aesthetic definition and therefore fits the erotic and everything of that nature. But to the Christian love is the works of love. Christ's love was not an inner feeling, a full heart and what not, it was the work of love which was his life.

  Soren Kierkegaard
