Arthur Schopenhauer Love Quotations

A man can be himself only so long as he is alone; if he does not love solitude, he will not love freedom, for it is only when he is alone that he is really free.

Faith is like love, it cannot be forced. Therefore it is a dangerous operation if an attempt be made to introduce or bind it by state regulations; for, as the attempt to force love begets hatred, so also to compel religious belief produces rank unbelief.

The conviction that the world and man is something that had better not have been, is of a kind to fill us with indulgence towards one another.

Gaiety alone, as it were, is the hard cash of happiness; everything else is just a promissory note.

Faith is like love: it does not let itself be forced.

Change alone is eternal, perpetual, immortal.
