"One does not fall 'in' or 'out' of love. One grows in love."
~ Leo Buscaglia, 20th century Dr. of Love from Love
I love that.
That one sentence probably sums up my philosophy of love better than any other.
Are you falling in and out love?
Or are you growing in love?

“Brian, The Fountainhead Note actually made tears well up and gave me goose bumps. Outstanding!! ... As an analytical lover of the arts I always notice composition and structure. From a great sales presentation to a Pearl Jam song on the radio, a piece of abstract art in the MOMA or a story on 60 Minutes; I appreciate the elements and how they are assembled. Typically a well done piece introduces ideas, builds emotion, bridges, and concludes. My "inner judge" knows immediately when this recipe has been achieved. The result is always the same. Big Emotion. That is what happened with this note. Its what you used and how you put it together. Like a Philosophical DJ. You heard it here 1st...”
“Hello Brian: I came across your site by chance (or was it chance?) and I think that it is fantastic. Why? Well because I think that the underlying concept, as I see it, is something that is very much needed in current times. Hard working, time pressed folk just can't devote the hours necessary to work their way properly through all the books you refer to. And I am not at all convinced that any sort of "speed reading" techniques would help to absorb in full the original content of all your enclosed texts. It's just great to be able to download a MP3 and listen to the 20 minutes or so of "distilled wisdom" per book last thing at night on my iPod. The way I see it you have compiled the musical equivalent of a "Greatest Hits" compilation from the philosophy domain. Plus I think that US$20 is very, very good value. May the powers that be give you the strength and inspiration to continue your important work.”
"People talk about the reality of their life as if it is important. And we want you to understand, it’s only the temporary indicator. Do you go to the gas station—your gas gauge is on empty—do you go to the gas station and look at your gas gauge in horror? “How did this happen? [Fun] Why, why, why did this happen to me?” Do you lay your head on the steering wheel and just sob? “Oh, look what it’s come to. [Fun] I’m finished. I’ve lived all of this life, and look where I am.” Or do you just fill up." ~ Esther & Jerry Hicks
