I am two fools, I know, For loving, and for saying so.

No spring nor summer beauty hath such grace as I have seen in one autumnal face.

Love is strong as death; but nothing else is as strong as either; and both, love and death, met in Christ. How strong and powerful upon you, then, should that instruction be, that comes to you from both these, the love and death of Jesus Christ!
JOHN DONNE

To be no part of any body, is to be nothing.

JOHN DONNE
