O Lord, that lends me life, lend me a heart replete with thankfulness!
Master, go on and I will follow thee to the last gasp with truth and loyalty.
There’s nothing in the world like the devotion of a married woman. It’s a thing no married man knows anything about.
The only business of the head in the world is to bow a ceaseless obeisance to the heart.
Nothing truly valuable arises from ambition or from a mere sense of duty; it stems rather from love and devotion towards men and towards objective things.
Nothing is worthy of man as man unless he can pursue it with passionate devotion.[Nichts ist für den Menschen als Menschen etwas wert, was er nicht mit Leidenschaft tun kann.]
Nothing is so boring as devotion.
My lips, two blushing pilgrims, ready stand to smooth that rough touch with a tender kiss.
Divinely bent to meditation, and no worldly suit would he be moved to draw him from his holy exercise.
