“Grant that I may not so much seek To be consoled, as to console; To be understood, as to understand; To be loved as to love. For it is in the giving that we receive.”- Saint Francis of Assisi’s Prayer of Peace
You can search throughout the entire universe for someone who is more deserving of your love and affection than you are yourself, and that person is not to be found anywhere. You yourself, as much as anybody in the entire universe deserve your love and affection.” — Buddha
“All friendly feelings for others are an extension of man’s feelings for himself.”--Aristotle
