Get it into your head once and for all, my simple and very fainthearted fellow, that what fools call humanness is nothing but a weakness born of fear and egoism; that this chimerical virtue, enslaving only weak men, is unknown to those whose character is formed by stoicism, courage, and philosophy.
Sade, Marquis De

16.
Passion costs me too much to bestow it on every trifle.
Adams, Thomas

The mind is no match with the heart in persuasion; constitutionality is no match with compassion.

There is no end. There is no beginning. There is only the infinite passion of life.
Fellini, Frederico

29.
Get into a line that you will find to be a deep personal interest, something you really enjoy spending twelve to fifteen hours a day working at, and the rest of the time thinking about.
Nightingale, Earl

30.
Waste no more time talking about great souls and how they should be. Become one yourself!

A man who has not passed through the inferno of his passions has never overcome them.
Jung, Carl

33.
Passion, though a bad regulator, is a powerful spring.
Emerson, Ralph Waldo

34.
Your pasion must come from the things that fuel you from the inside. Honors and awards are nice things, but only to the extent that they regard the real respect from your peers.

To hide a passion totally (or even to hide, more simply, its excess) is inconceivable: not because the human subject is too weak, but because passion is in essence made to be seen: the hiding must be seen: I want you to know that I am hiding something from you, that is the active paradox I must resolve: at one and the same time it must be known and not known: I want you to know that I don't want to show my feelings: that is the message I address to the other.
Barthes, Roland

38.
If we resist our passions, it is more through their weakness than from our strength.

As a bathtub lined with white porcelain, when the hot water gives out or goes tepid, so is the slow cooling of our chivalrous passion, o my much praised but-not-altogether-satisfactory lady.
Pound, Ezra

42.
The dew of compassion is a tear.
Byron, Lord

43.
I don't think I can play any other way but all out. I enjoy the game so much because I'm putting so much into it.

Jupiter, not wanting man's life to be wholly gloomy and grim, has bestowed far more passion than reason --you could reckon the ration as twenty-four to one. Moreover, he confined reason to a cramped corner of the head and left all the rest of the body to the passions.
Erasmus, Desiderius

45.
The whole idea of compassion is based on a keen awareness of the interdependence of all these living beings, which are all part of one another, and all involved in one another
Merton, Thomas
