Let not the hours pass by in the dark. Kindle the lamp of love with thy life.

The flower fades and dies; but he who wears the flower has not to mourn for it for ever.

The past is always with us, for nothing that once was time can ever depart.

Love is not a mere impulse, it must contain truth, which is law.

We live in the world when we love it.
