Eckhart Tolle

Justin Long

Praise is well, compliment is well, but affection-that is the last and most precious reward that any man can win, whether by character or achievement.

Beauty is precious, you see, and the more beautiful something is, the more precious it is; and the more precious it is the more it hurts us that it will fade away; and the more we are hurt by beauty, the more we love the world.
