"Girls we love for what they are; young men for what they promise to be." ― Johann Wolfgang von Goethe Topic(s): Love More From Johann Wolfgang von Goethe "What is important in life is life, and not the result of life." "Age merely shows what children we remain." "A really great talent finds its happiness in execution." More In Love "We’ve got this gift of love, but love is like a precious plant. You can’t just accept it and leave it in the cupboard or just think it’s going to get on by itself. You’ve got to keep watering it. You’ve got to really look after it and nurture it."― John Lennon "Where love rules, there is no will to power; and where power predominates, there love is lacking. The one is the shadow of the other."― Carl Jung "I can play punk rock, and I love playing punk rock, but I was into every other style of music before I played punk rock."― Travis Barker
