Quotes and poems

Love is like life, only longer.

Emily Dickinson

Those who are near me do not know that you are nearer to me than they are. Those who speak to me do not know that my heart is full with your unspoken words. Those who crowd in my path do not know that I am walking alone with you. They who love me do not know that their love brings you to my heart.

Rabindranath Tagore (1861–1941)

Faith is the bird that feels the light and sings when the dawn is still dark.

Rabindranath Tagore

Whoever survives a test, whatever it may be, must tell the story. That is his duty.

Elie Wiesel

A voice is heard in Ramah, lamentation and bitter weeping. Rachel is weeping for her children; she refuses to be comforted for her children, because they are no more.

Jeremiah 31:15

Call to me and I will answer you and tell you great and unsearchable things you do not know.

Jeremiah 33:3

Give sorrow words. The grief that does not speak whispers the o'er-fraught heart, and bids it break.

William Shakespeare

i carry your heart with me (i carry it in my heart) i am never without it (anywhere i go you go, my dear; and whatever is done by only me is your doing, my darling) i fear no fate (for you are my fate, my sweet) i want no world (for beautiful you are my world, my true) and it's you are whatever a moon has always meant and whatever a sun will always sing is you here is the deepest secret nobody knows (here is the root of the root and the bud of the bud and the sky of the sky of a tree called life; which grows higher than the soul can hope or mind can hide) and this is the wonder that's keeping the stars apart i carry your heart (i carry it in my heart)
