~ Emily Dickinson:
When we understand that man is the only animal who must create meaning, who must open a wedge into neutral nature, we already understand the essence of love. Love is the problem of an animal who must find life, create a dialogue with nature in order to experience his own being.
~ Ernest Becker
Who has not found the heaven below
Will fail of it above.
God's residence is next to mine,
His furniture is love.
~ Emily Dickinson
We need not think alike to love alike.
~ Francis David
