Famous quotes containing the words benevolent and/or love:
“A benevolent man should allow a few faults in himself, to keep his friends in countenance.”
—Benjamin Franklin (1706–1790)
“For it is the suffering flesh, it is suffering, it is death, that lovers perpetuate upon the earth. Love is at once the brother, son, and father of death, which is its sister, mother, and daughter. And thus it is that in the depth of love there is a depth of eternal despair, out of which springs hope and consolation.”
—Miguel de Unamuno (1864–1936)
