Caring About Someone

“Caring about someone isn't complicated. 

It isn't easy. 

But it isn't complicated, either. 

Kinda like lifting the engine block out of a car.”

~ Jim Butcher, Small Favor

Siblings

“Siblings: children of the same parents, 

each of whom is perfectly normal until they get together.”

~ Sam Levenson

If A Man

If a man can possess a woman sexually

 -really possess- 

he won't need to control her ideas, 

her opinions, her clothes, 

her friends, even her other lovers.”

~ Toni Bentley

The Love Of Which I Speak

“This love of which I speak is slow to lose patience - 

it looks for a way of being constructive.

Love is not possessive.

Love is not anxious to impress nor does it 

cherish inflated ideas of its own ideas.

Love has good manners and does not pursue selfish advantage.

Love is not touchy.

Love does not keep account of evil or 

gloat over the wickedness of other people. 

On the contrary, it is glad with all good men when truth prevails.

Love knows no limits to its endurance, 

no end to its trust, no fading of its hope; 

it can outlast anything. 

It is, in fact, the one thing that stands when all else has fallen.”

~ Elisabeth Elliot, Let Me be a Woman
