“The first duty of love is to listen.”

“I have given no definition of love. This is impossible, because there is no higher principle by which it could be defined. It is life itself in its actual unity. The forms and structures in which love embodies itself are the forms and structures in which love overcomes its self-destructive forces.”

“The separation of faith and love is always a consequence of a deterioration of religion.”

“Faith as the state of being ultimately concerned implies love, namely, the desire and urge toward the reunion of the seperated.”

“...history has shown that the most terrible crimes against love have been committed in the name of fanatically defended doctrines.”

“The courage to be is the courage to accept oneself, in spite of being unacceptable.”

“In the courageous standing of uncertainty, faith shows most visibly its dynamic character.”
