Love Quotes Quote by Cassandra Clare, Lord of Shadows — Inspiring Words on Life, Love & Wisdom

“Stop trying to be less of who you are. Let this time in your life cut you open and drain all of the things that are holding you back.”

“Emotion without reason lets people walk all over you; reason without emotion is a mask for cruelty.”

“Do you want me to tell you something really subversive? Love is everything it's cracked up to be. That's why people are so cynical about it. It really is worth fighting for, being brave for, risking everything for. And the trouble is, if you don't risk anything, you risk even more.”

“The greatest disease in the West today is not TB or leprosy; it is being unwanted, unloved, and uncared for. We can cure physical diseases with medicine, but the only cure for loneliness, despair, and hopelessness is love. There are many in the world who are dying for a piece of bread but there are many more dying for a little love. The poverty in the West is a different kind of poverty -- it is not only a poverty of loneliness but also of spirituality. There's a hunger for love, as there is a hunger for God.”

““I love you, Ella. I will love you for the rest of my life. My heart is yours. Please don't ever give it back to me.”
