“Listening to your tape, I was reminded of this poem. It has the central question: Is it harder to count on someone or to know that you're being the one counted upon? Anyway, there's this part that goes: "if equal affection cannot be, then let the more loving one be me." Have you ever read that one? It's one of my favorites.”
Janeane Garofalo
“I want to be very close to someone I respect and admire and have somebody who feels the same way about me.”
Richard Bach
“In nine cases out of ten, a woman had better show more affection than she feels.”
Jane Austen
“The affections are like lightning: you cannot tell where they will strike till they have fallen.”
Lee Iacocca
“Sometimes you got to hurt something to help something. Sometimes you have to plow under one thing in order for something else to grow.”
Ernest Gaines
“When we are young and again when we are old, we depend heavily on the affection of others. Between these stages we usually feel that we can do everything without help from others and that other people's affection is simply not important. But at this stage I think it is very important to keep deep human affection.”
Dalai Lama
“You will know that forgiveness has begun when you recall those who hurt you and feel the power to wish them well.”
Lewis B. Smedes
