A loving heart is the beginning of all knowledge. - Thomas Carlyle

"Love is not altogether a delirium, yet it has many points in common therewith."

"If Jesus Christ were to come today, people would not even crucify him. They would ask him to dinner, and hear what he had to say, and make fun of it."

"He who has health, has hope; and he who has hope, has everything."

"A loving heart is the beginning of all knowledge."

"My books are friends that never fail me."(Letter to his mother, Margaret A. Carlyle; 17 March 1817)"
