Quotes about Blaze

than it should be stifled by dry rot.

every atom of me in magnificent glow,
than a sleepy and permanent planet.

I shall not waste my days in trying to prolong them.
I shall use my time.

often escapes better than the oak which resists it;

recover their elasticity and presence of mind sooner
than those of a loftier character.

Real love is never a selfish emotion.
If you want something from someone -
especially if that something is sex -
what you are feeling is not true love.
True love is about wanting happiness for the person you love -
and not about seeking happiness for yourself.
Fortunately, in most cases our own loving presence
is the greatest gift we can give to a person we love.
Nonetheless, the litmus test of love is knowing
we would choose never to see that person again
if we believed that distance would bring them greater happiness.
- Jonathan Lockwood Huie
