“Passion is universal humanity. Without it religion, history, romance and art would be useless.”– Honore de Balzac Related Quotes “The light of love is life.”— Lailah Gifty Akita “Love actually is a great act of the will. It’s when I say, “I desire your good, not for my sake but for yours”. To love is to break out of the black hole of the ego and say, “My life is about you”.”— Robert E. Barron “All paths are the same: they lead nowhere. … Does this path have a heart? If it does, the path is good; if it doesn’t, it is of no use. Both paths lead nowhere; but one has a heart, the other doesn’t. One makes for a joyful journey; as long as you follow it, you are one with it. The other will make you curse your life. One makes you strong; the other weakens you.”— Carlos Castañeda
