“One can give up many things for love, but should not give up oneself”

“How many times could you give up on someone you loved?”

“They do sometimes go crazy, these people, because the world is telling them not to want the things they want. It can seem saner to give up-But then one goes insane from giving up.”

“Live one day at a time. Keep your attention in present time. Have no expectations. Make no judgements. And give up the need to know why things happen as they do. Give it up!”

“I think many people love their problems. Gives them all sorts of excuses for not growing up and getting on with life.”

“The one thing we can never get enough of is love. And the one thing we never give enough of is love.”

“One can give without loving, but one cannot love without giving”

“God nowhere tells us to give up things for the sake of giving them up. He tells us to give them up for the sake of the only thing worth having--viz., life with Himself. It is a question of loosening the bonds that hinder the life…”

“No one gives up on something until it turns on them, whether or not that thing is real or unreal.”

“I suspect the most we can hope for, and it's no small hope, is that we never give up, that we never stop giving ourselves permission to try to love and receive love.”
