Immature love says: 'I love you because I need
you.' Mature love says 'I need you because I
love you.
Love is like a friendship caught on fire. In the
beginning a flame, very pretty, often hot and
fierce, but still only light and flickering. As
love
grows older, our hearts mature and our love
becomes as coals, deep-burning and
unquenchable.
Keep love in your heart. A life without it is like
a sunless garden when the flowers are dead.
Sometimes the heart sees what is invisible to the eye.
Being deeply loved by someone gives you
strength, while loving someone deeply gives
you courage.
