“Love can neither be bought nor sold - it's only price is love”

“Perhaps the most extraordinary characteristic of current America is the attempt to reduce life to buying and selling. Life is not love unless love is sex and bought and sold. Life is not knowledge save knowledge of technique, of science for destruction. Life is not beauty except beauty for sale. Life is not art unless its price is high and it is sold for profit. All life is production for profit, and for what is profit but for buying and selling again?”

“Art cannot be bought or sold. It can only be created or destroyed.”

“Neither genius, fame, nor love show the greatness of the soul. Only kindness can do that.”

“Desire, even in its wildest tantrums, can neither persuade me it is love nor stop me from wishing it were.”

“The most intimate feeling people can share is neither love nor hate, but pain.”
