LOVE
Love gives itself; it is not bought.—Longfellow. It is a beautiful necessity of our nature to love something.—Jerrold. Love is never lost. If not reciprocated it will flow back and soften and purify the heart.—Washington Irving. • • * * Love is not a thing of enthusiastic emotion. It is a rich, strong, manly, vigorous expression of the whole round Christian character —the Christlike nature in its fullest development. And the constituents of this great character are only to be built up by ceaseless practice.—From “ The Greatest Thing in the World,” by Henry Henry Drummond.
Where there is room in the heart there is always room in the house.—Moore. You have not fulfilled every duty unless you have fulfilled that of being cheerful and pleasant.—C. Buxton. * * * * If thou neglectest thy love to thy neighbour, in vain thou professest thy' love to God.—Quarles. Love rules his kingdom without a sword. —ltalian proverb. The world is not a playground; it is a schoolroom. Life is not a holiday, but an education. And the one eternal lesson for us all is how better we can love.
