Love isn’t there to make us happy. I believe it exists to show us how much we can endure. Hermann Hesse
“The greatest gift which God in His bounty Bestowed in creating, And the most conformed to His own goodness And that which He most prizes, was the freedom of the will, With which the creatures that have intelligence, They all and they alone, were and are endowed.” Dante Alighieri
We shall not flag or fail. We shall go on to the end. We shall fight in France, we shall fight on the seas and oceans, we shall fight with growing confidence and growing strength in the air, we shall defend our island, whatever the cost may be. We shall fight on the beaches, we shall fight on the landing grounds, we shall fight in the fields and in the streets, we shall fight in the hills; we shall never surrender. Winston Churchill
“Here one must leave behind all hesitation; here every cowardice must meet its death.” Dante Alighieri
If Hitler invaded hell I would make at least a favorable reference to the devil in the House of Commons. Winston Churchill
“I saw within Its depth how It conceives all things in a single volume bound by Love, of which the universe is the scattered leaves.” Dante Alighieri
