  • Almost any tale of our doings is comic. We are bottomlessly comic to each other. Even the most adored and beloved person is comic to his lover. The novel is a comic form. Language is a comic form, and makes jokes in its sleep. God, if He existed, would laugh at His creation. Yet it is also the case that life is horrible, without metaphysical sense, wrecked by chance, pain and the close prospect of death. Out of this is born irony, our dangerous and necessary tool.

    Pain   Sleep   Laughing  
    Iris Murdoch (2003). “The Black Prince”, p.80, Penguin
  • Retirement revives the sorrow of parting, the feeling of abandonment, solitude and uselessness that is caused by the loss of some beloved person.

    Simone de Beauvoir (1972). “La vieillesse”
  • Human love has little regard for the truth. It makes the truth relative, since nothing, not even the truth, must come between it and the beloved person.

    Dietrich Bonhoeffer, Samuel Wells (2015). “Life Together”, p.21, SCM Press
  • You know that a given in life in human nature, is that at a sporting event, a baseball game, a football game, you never introduce a politician, is because he'll be booed. I don't care if he's the most beloved person in the world, its part of the game.

  • When you have once seen the glow of happiness on the face of a beloved person, you know that a man can have no vocation but to awaken that light on the faces surrounding him. In the depth of winter, I finally learned that within me there lay an invincible summer.

  • Bacon's portraits are an interrogation on the limits of the self. Up to what degree of distortion does an individual still remain himself? To what degree of distortion does a beloved person still remain a beloved person? For how long does a cherished face growing remote through illness, through madness, through hatred, through death still remain recognizable? Where is the border beyond which a self ceases to be a self?

    Self   Long   Hatred  
  • When we see the Beloved in each person, it's like walking through a garden, watching flowers bloom all around us.

    Ram Dass (2007). “One-Liners: A Mini-Manual for a Spiritual Life”, p.47, Harmony
  • When a man sees a dying animal, horror comes over him: that which he himself is, his essence, is obviously being annihilated before his eyes--is ceasing to be. But when the dying one is a person, and a beloved person, then, besides a sense of horror at the annihilation of life, there is a feeling of severance and a spiritual wound which, like a physical wound, sometimes kills and sometimes heals, but always hurts and fears any external, irritating touch.

    Spiritual   Hurt   Eye  
    Leo Tolstoy (2011). “War and Peace (Vintage Classic Russians Series)”, p.1075, Random House
  • It's much harder to play beloved than to play a rotten guy. Rotten guy is a piece of cake. So playing a beloved person really sets a high bar for your behavior and your acting and what you project.

    Cake   Play   Guy  
  • Care and responsibility are constituent elements of love, but without respect for and knowledge of the beloved person, love deteriorates into domination and possessiveness.

    Erich Fromm (2013). “Man for Himself: An Inquiry Into the Psychology of Ethics”, p.101, Routledge
  • The one person I am with forever is me. My relationship with myself is eternal, so I choose to be my own best friend. I choose to love and accept myself, and talk to myself as I would a beloved person in my life. I saturate all the cells in my body with love, and they become vibrantly healthy. I relate with love to all of my life.

    FaceBook post by Louise Hay from Apr 19, 2010
  • Love is the admiration and cherishing of the amiable qualities of the beloved person, upon the condition of yourself being the object of their action.

    Love   Quality   Action  
    Samuel Taylor Coleridge (2001). “On the Constitution of the Church and State”, p.286, Classic Books Company
  • No one can become fully aware of the very essence of another human being unless he loves him.

    Viktor E. Frankl (2015). “Man's Search For Meaning, Gift Edition”, p.87, Beacon Press
  • There is no doubt that solitude is a challenge and to maintain balance within it a precarious business. But I must not forget that, for me, being with people or even with one beloved person for any length of time without solitude is even worse. I lose my center. I feel dispersed, scattered, in pieces. I must have time alone in which to mull over my encounter, and to extract its juice, its essence, to understand what has really happened to me as a consequence of it.

    May Sarton, Edith Royce Schade (1994). “From May Sarton's well: writings of May Sarton”, Papier Mache Pr
  • Our nature is the nature of no birth and no death. It is impossible for a cloud to pass from being into nonbeing. And that is true with a beloved person. They have not died. They have continued in many new forms and you can look deeply and recognize them in you and around you.

    Interview with Oprah Winfrey, www.oprah.com.
  • No one can become fully aware of the very essence of another human being until he loves him. By his love he is enabled to see the essential traits and features in the beloved person; and even more, he sees that which is potential in him, which is not yet actualized. Furthermore, by his love, the loving person enables the beloved person to actualize these potentialities. By making him aware of what he can be and what he should become, he makes these potentialities come true.
