Wisdom and goodness are twin-born, one heart must hold both sisters, never seen apart.
William Dean Howells

In our heart we know that life loves life. Yet we feast on some of the other life-forms with which we share our planet; we kill to live.

Diane Ackerman

And pleasure tunes my tongue.

From heart to heart
a heartbeat staggers, looking for a haven.

Too many vacations that last too long, too many movies, too much TV, too much video game playing - too much undisciplined leisure time in which a person continually takes the course of least resistance gradually wastes a life. It ensures that a person's capacities stay dormant, that talents remain undeveloped, that the mind and spirit become lethargic and that the heart remains unfulfilled.
Stephen Covey

My teachers always said, "You're very talented, but don't set your heart on art. You're only a girl." I was inspired by Virginia Woolf in 1960, but they wouldn't let me write about her.

Carolee Schneemann

My heart is set, as firmly as ever heart of man was set on woman. I have no thought, no view, no hope, in life beyond her; and if you oppose me in this great stake, you take my peace and happiness in your hands, and cast them to the wind.
Charles Dickens
