We can recognize the dawn and the decline of love by the uneasiness we feel when alone together. The sorrowful spirit finds rest when united with a similar one. They join affectionately, as a stranger is cheered when he sees another stranger in a strange land. Hearts that are united through the medium of sorrow will not be separated by the glory of happiness. Love that is cleansed by tears will remain externally pure and beautiful. Real beauty lies in the spiritual accord that is called love which can exist between a man and a woman. But if you love and must needs have desires, let these be your desires: To melt and be like a running brook that sings its melody to the night. To know the pain of too much tenderness. To be wounded by your own understanding of love; And to bleed willingly and joyfully. All passions make us commit some faults, love alone makes us ridiculous. If it is so painful to love and to be charged with this electric current, how much more painful must it be to a woman and to be the current, and to inspire love. | 1 | 2 | 3 | 4 | 5 | 6 | 7 | 8 | 9 | 10 | |
