“Love is the true means by which the world is enjoyed: our love to others, and ot…” — Thomas Traherne

To love one person with a private love is poor and miserable: to love all is glorious.

Had we not loved ourselves at all, we could never have been obliged to love anything. So that self-love is the basis of all love.

You never know yourself till you know more than your body.

More company increases happiness, but does not lighten or diminish misery.
