“Love is ease, love is comfort, love is support and respect. Love is not punishing or controlling. Love lets you grow and breathe. Love's passion is only good passion -- swirling-leaves-on-a-fall-day passion, a-sky-full-of-magnificent-stars passion -- not angst and anxiety. Love is not hurt and harm. Love is never unsafe. Love is sleeping like puzzle pieces. It's your own garden you protect; it's a field of wildflowers you move about in both freely and together.”
“Let us not confuse love with passion. Love, True Love is eternal. Passion just rides as far as the thought of love will take him. Never blame love for passions faults.”
“Unless love is passion, it's not love, but something else; and passion thrives not on satisfaction, but on impediment.”
“A writer needs to ingest love to be passionate. Passion is a metabolite of love, and good writing is an active metabolite of passion.”
“Oh God, let me not be cured of love, but let my passion grow! Let me love for love's sake!”
“Passion makes us stronger than we are. Love makes us better than we are. Be passionate about the things you love.”
