Thomas Merton
The beginning of love is to let those we love be perfectly themselves, and not to twist them to fit our own image. Otherwise we love only the reflection of ourselves we find in them.

By desiring little, a poor man makes himself rich...Whenever we condemn, we cloak the world in pain...In the face of an obstacle which is impossible...Never turn down a job because you think it's too small...But now, for the first time...Old age is a shipwreck...
