Centering Thought:

“Those who are not guided by love, whatever they may know, are nothing. No one can be saved without love, which does nothing wrong, which is the bond of perfection; this love unifies the disparate, brings together the divided, illuminates the darkened, settles the turbulent, softens all bitterness, and turns all burdens into light. …. Without it, all virtues are rendered null.”
