Have you ever been in love? Horrible isn't it? It makes you so vulnerable. It opens your chest and it opens up your heart and it means that someone can get inside you and mess you up. You build up all these defenses, you build up a whole suit of armor, so that nothing can hurt you, then one stupid person, no different from any other stupid person, wanders into your stupid life...You give them a piece of you. They didn't ask for it. They did something dumb one day, like kiss you or smile at you, and then your life isn't your own anymore. Love takes hostages. It gets inside you. It eats you out and leaves you crying in the darkness, so simple a phrase like 'maybe we should be just friends' turns into a glass splinter working its way into your heart. It hurts. Not just in the imagination. Not just in the mind. It's a soul-hurt, a real gets-inside-you-and-rips-you-apart pain. I hate love.
- Neil Gaiman

Love one another but make not a {gold} bond of love;
Let it rather be a moving sea between the shores of your souls ...
Even as the strings of a lute are alone though they quiver with the same music.give your hearts, but not into each other's keeping.
For only the hand of Life can contain your hearts ...
For the pillars of the temple stand apart, and the oak tree and the sigh/press grow not in each other's shadow.- Kahil Gibran (The Prophet)
Love can be a huge mountain, a gentle garden, a raging storm, a cool breeze, or a perfect bath. But there is always fire somewhere nearby. There is always the red-hot stuff of the soul's initiation. If there isn't fire, then it isn't love ... If it doesn't insist that you move to your next level, if it doesn't take your heart and make it explode in a million pieces, only to fall back together again in some Moment of enlightened understanding, then you haven't really loved.
- Marianne Williamson (Enchanted Love)
An infinitude of tenderness is the chief gift and inheritance of all truly great men.
