Winds blow south, or winds blow north,
Day come white, or night come black,
Home, or rivers and mountains from home,
Singing all the time, minding no time,
While we two keep together."

George Sand
"There is only one happiness in life, to love and be loved."

“The best portion of a good man's life, 
His little, nameless, unremembered acts,
Of kindness and of love.”
