"Love is blind, friends close their eyes..." - Quote by Friedrich Nietzsche

“It is a distinction to have many virtues, but a hard lot.”

“Strideth over all mountains, and laugheth at all tragedies”

“Go up close to your friend, but do not go over to him! We should also respect the enemy in our friend.”

“Love is the reality, and poetry is the drum.”

“Whoever has loved once, knows all that life contains of sorrow and of joy.”

“Love. Fall in love and stay in love. Write only what you love, and love what you write. The key word is love. You have to get up in the morning and write something you love, something to live for.”

“One enemy can do more hurt than ten friends can do good.”

“It was in their friendship they just wanted to run forever, shadow and shadow.”

“We poets would die of loneliness but for women, and we choose our men friends that we may have somebody to talk about women with. Letter to Olivia Shakespeare, 1936”
