The beginning of love is the will to let those we love be perfectly themselves, the resolution not to twist them to fit our own image. If in loving them we do not love what they are, but only their potential likeness to ourselves, then we do not love them: we only love the reflection of ourselves we find in them.
— Thomas Merton
Where there is love, there is no imposition.
— Albert Einstein
Love cannot remain by itself – it has no meaning. Love has to be put into action, and that action is service.

At the center of nonviolence stands the principle of love.
— Martin Luther King, Jr.

— Nelson Mandela
Love your enemies, do good to those who hate you.

Darkness cannot drive out darkness: only light can do that. Hate cannot drive out hate: only love can do that.

— Martin Luther King, Jr.
Just as I have loved you, you also are to love one another.
— Jesus
