The soul is like an uninhabited worldthat comes to life only... - Thomas Aquinas

"The things that we love tell us what we are."

"Because philosophy arises from awe, a philosopher is bound in his way to be a lover of myths and poetic fables. Poets and philosophers are alike in being big with wonder."

"Love takes up where knowledge leaves off."

"Moral science is better occupied when treating of friendship than of justice."

"There is nothing on this earth more to be prized than true friendship."
