Quotations
Love      

"There is love of course. And then there's life, its enemy." 
                                                          - Jean Anouilh

"Love is life. All, everything that I understand, I understand only because I love. Everything is, everything exists, only because I love. Everything is united by it alone. Love is God, and to die means that I, a particle of love, shall return to the general and eternal source."
                                                                                 - Leo Tolstoy

"Immature love says: 'I love you because I need you.' Mature love says: "I need you because I love you."
                                                               - Erich Fromm  

Life

"Each man must look to himself to teach him the meaning of life. It is not something discovered: it is something moulded."
                                                                        - Antoine de Saint-Exupéry

                                                                               - Benjamin Franklin
 

"To live life well is to express life poorly; if one expresses life too well, one is living it no longer."
                                                                 - Gaston Bachelard

Winning

"No matter how tough, no matter what kind of outside pressure, no matter how many bad breaks along the way, I must keep my sights on the final goal, to win, win, win- and with more love and passion than the world has ever witnessed in any performance."
                                                                - Billie Jean King

"The only way to win is to fight on the side of your adversaries."
                                                                                 - Francis Picabia

Resting on your laurels is as dangerous as resting when you are walking in the snow. You doze off and die in your sleep.
