Quotes about fighting

fighting people pace
There is a kind of expressed love which is easy to subvert.

In fact, the attempts to destroy such loves only strengthen them. And to do nothing allows them to continue to grow at their natural pace, inexoribly, till this love becomes a wide and silent adoration.
