To live without loving is not really to live

One should eat to live, not live to eat.

I live on good soup, not on fine words.

It is a wonderful seasoning of all enjoyments to think of those we love.

It is not only for what we do that we are held responsible, but also for what we do not do.

The more we love our friends, the less we flatter them; it is by excusing nothing that pure love shows itself.
