More quotes by Adrienne von Speyr
Ultimate audacity: to want to love a person—to say nothing of one's neighbor!—as God loves him.
Christian hope is a vessel in which faith lives; love carries it.
The first step in learning to love others is the attempt to understand them.

Love looks not with the eyes, but with the mind,
And therefore is wing'd Cupid painted blind.
To fear love is to fear life, and those who fear life are already three parts dead.
Not for the body, but for the heart; companion and company are needed.
Love seldom haunts the breast where learning lies,
And Venus sets ere Mercury can rise.
