因爱而爱，是神；因被爱而爱，是人。

You must love yourself before you can love another.

Maude

The greatest healing therapy is friendship and love.

Hubert Humphrey

Together is the nicest place to be.

Anonymous

We are each of us angels but with one wing, and can only fly by embracing each other.

Luciano de Crescenzo

However rare true love may be, it is less so than true friendship.

La Rochefoucauld

The former hasn’t shown up, yet. I’m blessed to have 3 of the latter.

Life is fortified by many friendships — To love and be loved is the greatest happiness of existence.

Sydney Smith

What did they sang in Moulin Rouge? “The greatest things / you’ll ever learn / is just to love / and be loved in return.“

曾经沧海难为水， 
除却巫山不是云。

【唐】元稹

我的确不愿意将目光转移给他人。我也无法这样做；因为我根本就看不见。

Rain is the merging of cool air with warm
under general conditions of humidity. Try to remember
it has nothing to do with love
or grief. This is the consolation of philosophy:
it’s out of our hands. The business of bars
and stores, our separate beds, the garbaged
offices of alleyways, is aging. It signs
in the blood like salt, slows us, and is why
our hearts are heaviest on the moment
of waking: the weight we ferry, the fright,
the long vowel opening at the centre
of a consonant world that draws the hurt up,
an empty bowl, while history’s rebar is replaced
and a species coughs its lung out
in another room. Private lives of insects
and the single notes that move them, hard-won
courage of raccoon and crow who eat our garbage
and hate us, are foreclosed. We are lonely. We
are here. Inside, a vestigial swimmer bears
memory like a phantom pain of when the earth
was new and we were promise in the sex
of its making, its heat and pools. Cell’s random
liquid birth. In the molecular ache of land
as it cooled, when, before tears, before
property, it rained for more than a million years.

 ”Under the Sun” by Karen Solie

你的眼神充满美丽带走我的心跳 　 
你的温柔如此靠近带走我的心跳 
逆转时光到一开始 能不能给一秒 
等着哪一天你也想起 
那悬在记忆中的美好

from “心跳” by 王力宏
