#quotes #thomas-friedman #caring #community

Maybe love was superstition, a prayer we said to keep the truth of loneliness at bay. I tilted my head back. The stars looked like they were close together, when really they were millions of miles apart. In the end, maybe love just meant longing for something impossibly bright and forever out of reach. ~Leigh Bardugo
#quotes #leigh-bardugo #love

In every head is some wisdom. ~Arabic Proverb
#proverbs #arabic-proverbs #wisdom

Whenever the devil harasses you, seek the company of men or drink more, or joke and talk nonsense, or do some other merry thing. Sometimes we must drink more, sport, recreate ourselves, and even sin a little to spite the devil, so that we leave him no place for troubling our consciences with trifles. We are conquered if we try too conscientiously not to sin at all. So when the devil says to you: do not drink, answer him: I will drink, and right freely, just because you tell me not to. ~Martin Luther
#quotes #martin-luther #evil #alcohol

Friendship is not how long we have been together; not how much we have given or received; not how many times we have helped each other; it is how we value each other.
