Paul Tillich Quotes

After the verb 'to Love', 'to Help' is the most beautiful verb in the world.

Helping someone is what life is all about.

When you love someone, you don't want them to suffer at all.

The degree of loving is measured by the degree of giving.

You don't walk away if you love someone. You help the person.

Love is sacrifice.

I didn't want readers to think I was asking to be praised for taking care of my wife while she was ill. Lots of people are heroic, more heroic than I was, when faced with the suffering of someone they love.

I really just want to be warm yellow light that pours over everyone I love.

Love is when each person is more concerned for the other than for one's self.

I love helping people.

I think the greatest thing that we can do is take care of each other.

Love is cheering and sharing and compassion and giving and receiving. Love is an action thing more than a word thing, that brings comfort or joy or relief to anyone or anything.

The best thing to do is find one person in your life and try to love them unconditionally. If you've accomplished that, you've accomplished a lot.

Some think love can be measured by the amount of butterflies in their tummy. Others think love can be measured in bunches of flowers, or by using the words 'for ever.' But love can only truly be measured by actions. It can be a small thing, such as peeling an orange for a person you love because you know they don't like doing it.

What does love look like? It has the hands to help others. It has the feet to hasten to the poor and needy. It has eyes to see misery and want. It has the ears to hear the sighs and sorrows of men. That is what love looks like.

Love is the most terrible, and also the most generous of the passions; it is the only one which includes in its dreams the happiness of someone else.

Love is when the other person's happiness is more important than your own.

At the end of the day, that's our sole purpose and our sole reason for existing, is to love somebody else.

Love is all we have, the only way that each can help the other.

Missionary zeal does not grow out of intellectual beliefs, nor out of theological arguments, but out of love. If I do not love a person I am not moved to help him by proofs that he is in need; if I do love him, I wait for no proof of a special need to urge me to help him.

You can give without loving, but you can never love without giving.

To love is to act.

Before a game, you know, I can take off my helmet, run over there and spend a few moments with someone who is dealing with so much more than I've ever had to deal with and to love on them and care about them and in front of thousands and thousands of people, you know, let them know that they're more important than all of this.

However it is debased or misinterpreted, love is a redemptive feature. To focus on one individual so that their desires become superior to yours is a very cleansing experience.

Love is taking a few steps backward, maybe even more…to give way to the happiness of the person you love.
