“It's usually the selfish people who are loved the most. They do what you deny yourself, and you love them for it. You give them your heart.”

Saul Bellow (1915–2005) Canadian-born American writer

“Maybe you want to give me kisses sweet,
But only for one night with no repeat.
Maybe you'd go away and never call,
And a taste of honey is worse than none at all (oh little girl)
Oh little girl, in that case I don't want no part. (I do believe that)
That would only break my heart.
Oh, but if you feel like loving me,
If you got the notion,
I second that emotion.”

Smokey Robinson (1940) American R&B singer-songwriter and record producer

“You will love again the stranger who was your self.
Give wine. Give bread. Give back your heart

for another, who knows you by heart.”

“If you wanna dance, if you want it all,
You know that I'm the girl that you should call.But when you're with me,

So you can have your cake,
Give you something good to celebrate.”

Unaware I'm tearing you asunder.
Ooh, there is thunder in our hearts.”

Song lyrics, Hounds of Love (1985)

“People ask, ‚"Do you say that you are God?‚" I say, ‚"No, I am not God....... I don't want to be God.‚" But what I do want to be is a humble servant of God so that I can teach people this Knowledge, so that I can give people this gospel of peace, love and Truth. That' all I want to do. So all these lectures, all these speeches that I am giving are just for this purpose.”
