The course of true love never did run smooth.
A truth that's told with bad intent beats all the lies you can invent.
Love takes off masks that we fear we cannot live without and know we cannot live within.
People who are brutally honest get more satisfaction out of the brutality than out of the honesty.
Deceiving others. That is what the world calls a romance.
The cruelest lies are often told in silence.
The moment you follow someone you cease to follow Truth.
Unconditional love will have the final word in reality.
The world is too dangerous for anything but truth and too small for anything but love.
Jesus Christ was an extremist for love, truth and goodness.
People say they love truth, but in reality they want to believe that which they love is true.

If we do not nourish our love, it will die and may turn into hate. If we want love to last, we have to nurture it and give it food every day. Hate is the same; if we don't feed it, it cannot survive.
Truth quenches untruth, love quenches anger, self-suffering quenches violence. This eternal rule is a rule not for saints only but for all.
To penetrate into the essence of all being and significance, and to release the fragrance of that inner attainment for the guidance of others, by expressing in the world of forms- truth, love, purity and beauty - this is the sole game which has any intrinsic and absolute worth.

The Law is God. Anything attributed to Him is not a mere attribute. He is Truth, Love, Law and a million things that human ingenuity can name.
What are people searching for in life? God. In the christian scriptures, it says 'Be still and know you are God.' What is this? You are peace, compassion, truth, Love, freedom.
