It is natural for the mind to believe and for the will to love; so that, for want of true objects, they must attach themselves to false.

Clarity of mind means clarity of passion, too; this is why a great and clear mind loves ardently and sees distinctly what he loves.

Le coeur a ses raisons que le raison ne connaît point.

We conceal it from ourselves in vain-- we must always love something. In those matters seemingly removed from love, the feeling is secretly to be found, and man cannot possibly live for a moment without it.

The heart has its reasons which the mind cannot comprehend.

That we must love one God only is a thing so evident that it does not require miracles to prove it.
