Engelhardt

He eyeed Fortuona pointedly. ~ Robert Jordan

Words that taught us early on what reverence is? ~ Pascal Mercier

I didn't understand the question, because what's there to miss.. He lost someone who could have loved him forever, but I lost someone who never did ...

There are all sorts of experiences we can't really put a name to ... The birth of a child, for one. Or the death of a parent. Falling in love. Words are like nets
we hope they'll cover what we mean, but we know they can't possibly hold that much joy, grief, or wonder. Finding God is like that, too. If it's happened to you, you know what it feels like. But try to describe it to someone else
and language only takes you so far. ~ Jodi Picoult

I'll take it.' ~ Betty White

And the most powerful, transforming energy is the energy of love. ~ Laura Esquivel

Magic existed in his eyes, his energy as he lived his daily life. I could fall into his soul and lay my worries to rest, but if by chance this happened; it wouldn't last the test.
because there's much to learn, before we can meet, I want to collide with his heart; allow our souls to fleet.
His arms will hold my fears, but he won't carry the load; as it is my lesson to love myself, and find my own sense of hope.
When we cross our paths, our knowledge will last the test; as patience fills the air and our burdens are put to rest,
I will honour my truth, and seek what I desire; ever lasting love and passion set on fire. ~ Nikki Rowe

Maitri can be translated as "love" or "loving kindness". Some Buddhist teachers prefer "loving kindness" as they find the word "love" too dangerous. But I prefer the word "love". Words sometimes get sick and we have to heal them. We have been using the word "love" to mean appetite or desire, as in "I love hamburgers". We have to use language more carefully. "Love" is a beautiful word; we have to restore its meaning. The word "maitri" has roots in the word mitra which means friend. In Buddhism, the primary meaning of love is friendship. ~ Thich Nhat Hanh

I have a passion for words. I love words. And I'm just learning and developing my skills for words. I do books and I do journalism and plays. I have a broad palette.

I'd never say never, of course, but I look at it and don't really fancy it. I want to try and master the word side of it first. ~ Geoff Thompson

I scream out the ropes of words that bound my tongue, and the heavens echo back...'I love you'. ~ Alfa H

There's a word for the first blush of youthful love free of desire. For longing to be with someone so much you would rather throw yourself to the tides than be without them. For the stale but steady relationship between faithful members of an arranged marriage. For how to feel about someone you thought was everything but ended up never feeling the same way about you. For the poison left over when you love someone and it ends so badly you cannot release the feelings. For the love between a mother and her children, a father and his children, a grandmother and her progeny, the love between two dear friends, the love that is the first building block of a lifelong affair. There's even a word for a love so devastating nothing before or after is ever seen the same. ~ Kiersten White

I don't wonder about the place
I'd left behind,
For, home is where you are! ~ Jyoti Patel

I love words; they are the quoits, the bows, the staves that furnish the gymnasium of the mind. ~ George Eliot

I love words, but I also love finding out that there is a word for something that you've experienced but didn't know there was a word for.
