"Real love is caring about the happiness of another person without any thought for what we might get for ourselves. When we give Real Love, we’re not disappointed, hurt, or angry, even when people are thoughtless or inconsiderate or give us nothing in return - including gratitude - because our concern is for their happiness, not our own. Real love is unconditional."

But I don’t freakin care! I don’t have to stay through December anymore. Come August it’s “Bye, bye, Minnesota!”

Ben Sweetland (via quote-book)
"Where is the man who can fulfill the desires of this sensitive nature which is as fiery as it is delicate? For years I have searched in vain! In vain! I have found men! Men who are all alike, to none of whom I could submit with respect and declare ardently: You are my God on this earth, and the absolute master of this passionate soul. For this reason my affections have been irresolute and short lived. I searched for a goodness I was unable to find and which perhaps does not even exist on earth. Now I no longer search for it nor desire it: for that reason I am more composed."
