"I never wanted children. If I'd been deeply in love with a man and he'd wanted children, it would have been difficult."

Amber Hurdle

"The fact is that love is of two kinds, one which commands, and one which obeys. The two are quite distinct, and the passion to which the one gives rise is not the passion of the other."

"Three great lessons for my children; love God, love yourself and love your neighbour as yourself."

"In Christ the middle wall of partition has been broken down. There is no Jew, no Gentile-no black, white, yellow, or red. We could be one great brotherhood in Jesus Christ. However, until we come to recognize Him as the Prince of Peace and receive His love in our hearts, the racial tensions will increase, racial demands will become more militant, and a great deal of blood will be shed. The race problem could become another flame out of control!"

"Anyway, the sort of love that will not wait is probably best to pass by."

Amber Hurdle

"Even if the two lovers are mature and experienced people who know that broken hearts heal in the end and can clearly foresee that, if they once steeled themselves to go through the present agony of parting, they would almost certainly be happier ten years hence than marriage is at all likely to make them - even then, they would not part."

"When a man must force himself to be faithful in his love, this is hardly better than unfaithfulness."

Quote_1.png
Amber Hurdle

"But it's not safe and I can feel him slipping away, so I just get out one more sentence. "Stay with me." As the tendrils of sleep syrup pull me down, I hear him whisper a word back but I don't catch it."

"Love is the light and source of life, and happiness is the delight and essence of life."

Henry David Thoreau
"It is by a mathematical point only that we are wise, as the sailor or fugitive slave keeps the polestar in his eye; but that is sufficient guidance for all our life. We may not arrive at our port within a calculable period, but we would preserve the true course."

Henry David Thoreau
"It's too late to be studying Hebrew, it's more important to understand even the slang of today."

Henry David Thoreau
"Between whom there is hearty truth there is love."
Quote_1.png
Henry David Thoreau
"It is desirable that a man live in all respects so simply and preparedly that if an enemy take the town... he can walk out the gate empty-handed and without anxiety."

Henry David Thoreau
"Commonly men will only be brave as their fathers were brave, or timid."
Quote_1.png
Henry David Thoreau
"The childish and savage taste of men and women for new patterns keeps how many shaking and squinting through kaleidoscopes that they may discover the particular figure which this generation requires to-day. The manufacturers have learned that this taste is merely whimsical. Of two patterns which differ only by a few threads more or less of a particular color, the one will be sold readily, the other lie on the shelf, though it frequently happens that after the lapse of a season the latter becomes the most fashionable. Comparatively, tattooing is not the hideous custom which it is called. It is not barbarous merely because the printing is skin-deep and unalterable."

"I was not born to be forced. I will breathe after my own fashion. Let us see who is the strongest."
Quote_1.png
Henry David Thoreau
"Probably no country was ever ruled by so mean a class of tyrants as, with a few noble exceptions, are the editors of the periodical press in this country. And as they live and rule only by their servility, and appealing to the worst, and not the better nature of man, the people who read them are in the condition of the dog that returns to his vomit."
Quote_1.png
Henry David Thoreau
"For the people must have some complicated machinery or other, and hear its din, to satisfy that idea of government which they have."
Quote_1.png
Henry David Thoreau
"A man's interest in a single bluebird is worth more than a complete but dry list of the fauna and flora of a town."
