I never knew how to worship until I knew how to love.
Henry Ward Beecher 1813-1887, American Preacher, Orator, Writer

Young love is a flame; very pretty, often very hot and fierce, but still only light and flickering. The love of the older and disciplined heart is as coals, deep-burning, unquenchable.
Henry Ward Beecher

Love is the river of life in the world.
Henry Ward Beecher

Love ceases to be a pleasure, when it ceases to be a secret.
Aphra Behn 1640-1689, British Playwright, Poet

Honor the ocean of love.
George De Benneville 1703-1793, French Radical Christian

Love seeks no cause beyond itself and no fruit; it is its own fruit, its own enjoyment. I love because I love; I love in order that I may love.
St. Bernard 1090-1153, French Theologian and Reformer

Let no one believe that he has received the divine kiss, if he knows the truth without loving it or loves it without understanding it. But blessed is that kiss whereby not only is God recognized but also the Father is loved; for there is never full knowledge without perfect love.
St. Bernard

Love is the fulfilling of the Law.
Bible

This is my commandment, that ye love one another. [Jesus, In John 15:12]
