quotes about life, love, and friends

"by plucking her petals you do not gather the beauty of a flower." ~ Rabindrath Tagore

That which is striking and beautiful is not always good, but that which is good is always beautiful. ~Ninon de L'Enclos

These violent delights have violent ends
And in their triumph die, like fire and powder,
Which, as they kiss, consume. The sweetest honey
Is loathsome in his own deliciousness
And in the taste confounds the appetite.
Therefore love moderately. Long love doth so.
Too swift arrives as tardy as too slow. ~Romeo and Juliet Act II Scene vi


Beauty... is the shadow of God on the universe. ~Gabriela Mistral

Beauty... when you look into a woman's eyes and see what is in her heart. ~Nate Dircks

No man can be called friendless who has God and the companionship of good books. ~Elizabeth Barrett Browning

A single rose can be my garden... a single friend, my world. ~Leo Buscaglia

Just some quotes i've discovered and love...let me know what you think.
my favorite is the first one, and the one from Romeo and Juliet...i love that play...
