A set of quotes-1 Don Q

For the updated version of don-q.  As a matter of fact, that's the name I'll use.  Don-Q.  Stay tuned for the first chapter.  Which of us does not have the blood of a knight errant flowing in our veins.  Prepare as I open the artery and let it flow out.  It will be the biography of a poet-scientist trapped in a world where the insane are not appreciated for what they bring to the world, please go there with me.

original quote:  Everything comes with a price and the more valuable it is and the longer you have it without consequence the more expensive the cost.

a german proverb:  Too soon old, too late smart

insouciance-relaxed calm feeling; feeling of not worried about anything.  Yeah, right.

Nat King ColeThe greatest thing you ever learn is just to love and be loved in return.

SocratesThe hottest love has the coldest end.

Henry DrummondYou will find as you look back upon your life that the moments when you have really lived are the moments when you have done things in the spirit of love.

Thomas MooreBut there's nothing half so sweet in life
As love's young dream.

George MooreThe hours I spend with you I look upon as sort of a perfumed garden, a dim twilight, and a fountain singing to it. You and you alone make me feel that I am alive. Other men it is said have seen angels, but I have seen thee and thou art enough.

William ShakespeareIf love be rough with you, be rough with love. Prick love for pricking you and beat love down.

Sigmund FreudWe are never so helplessly unhappy as when we lose love.

"If one does not know to which port he is sailing, no wind is favorable."  Seneca

I think when it was told to me, it was, "No wind is a bad wind if you don't know which port you are sailing to."  Both mean something similar, but not the same, very curious.
