- In
the following passage from
the King James Version of
the Christian Holy
Bible the word Charity
is used as a translation
of the Latin Caritas,
and the original Greek Agape,
which were words for Love,
and used to denote the
highest and most
self-transcending forms of
Love.
Though I speak
with the tongues of men
and of angels, and have
not charity, I am become
as sounding brass, or a
tinkling cymbal.
And though I have the gift
of prophecy, and
understand all mysteries,
and all knowledge; and
though I have all faith,
so that I could remove
mountains, and have not
charity, I am nothing. And
though I bestow all my
goods to feed the poor,
and though I give my body
to be burned, and have not
charity, it profiteth me
nothing. Charity
suffereth long, and is
kind; charity envieth not;
charity vaunteth not
itself, is not puffed up,
Doth not behave itself
unseemly, seeketh not her
own, is not easily
provoked, thinketh no
evil; Rejoiceth not in
iniquity, but rejoiceth in
the truth; Beareth all
things, believeth all
things, hopeth all things,
endureth all things.
Charity never
faileth: but whether there
be prophecies, they shall
fail; whether there be
tongues, they shall cease;
whether there be
knowledge, it shall vanish
away. For we know
in part, and we prophesy
in part. But when that
which is perfect is come,
then that which is in part
shall be done away.
When I was a child, I
spake as a child, I
understood as a child, I
thought as a child: but
when I became a man, I put
away childish things. For
now we see through a
glass, darkly; but then
face to face: now I know
in part; but then shall I
know even as also I am
known. And now abideth
faith, hope, charity,
these three; but the
greatest of these is
charity.
- To
love and be loved, is to
feel the Sun from both
sides. — David
Viscott
- True
Love in this differs from
gold and clay, that to
divide is not to take
away. Love is like
understanding, that grows
bright, gazing on many
truths… —Percy
Bysshe Shelley
- Two
persons who love each
other are in a place more
holy than the interior of
a church. — William
Phelps
- We
are shaped and fashioned
by what we love. — Johann
Wolfgang von Goethe
- What
is done out of love always
takes place beyond good
and evil. — Friedrich
Nietzsche
- When
the evening of this life
comes, we shall be judged
on Love. — St.
John of the Cross
- When
two people understand each
other in their inmost
hearts, their words are
sweet and strong, like the
fragrance of orchids. — I
Ching
- Where
there is the greatest
love, there are always
miracles. — Willa
Cather
- To
him she seemed so
beautiful, so seductive,
so different from ordinary
people, that he could not
understand why no one was
as disturbed as he by the
clicking of her heels on
the paving stones, why no
one else's heart was wild
with the breeze stirred by
the sighs of her veils,
why everyone did not go
mad with the movements of
her braid, the flight of
her hands, the gold of her
laughter. He had not
missed a single one of her
gestures, not one of the
indications of her
character, but he did not
dare approach her for fear
of destroying the spell. -
Gabriel
Garcia Marquez (from Love
in the Time of Cholera)
- There
is nothing more painful
than seeing someone you
love loving someone else.
But there is nothing more
rewarding that seeing two
people you love loving
each other. - J.H.
