charm

«Stupidity has a certain charm - ignorance does not»
«May God grant you always...A sunbeam to warm you, a moonbeam to charm you, a sheltering Angel so nothing can harm you. Laughter to cheer you. Faithful friends near you. And whenever you pray, Heaven to hear you.»
«Possession, it is true, crowns exertion with rest; but it is only in the illusions of fancy that it has power to charm us.»
«Modesty: the gentle art of enhancing your charm by pretending not to be aware of it.»
«One thing above all gives charm to men's thoughts, and this is unrest. A mind that is not uneasy irritates and bores me.»
«Soft is the music that would charm for ever;The flower of sweetest smell is shy and lowly.»
«Love has the power that dispels death; charm that conquers the enemy»
«There is a charm about the forbidden that makes it unspeakably desirable.»
«Music is a moral law. It gives soul to the universe, wings to the mind, flight to the imagination, and charm and gaiety to life and to everything.»
«Perhaps it will seem to you that the sunshine is brighter and that everything has a new charm. At least, I believe this is always the result of a deep love, and it is a beautiful thing. And I believe people who think love prevents one from thinking clearly are wrong; for then one thinks very clearly and is more active than before. And love is something eternal--the aspect may change, but not the essence. There is the same difference in a person before and after he is in love as there is in an unlighted lamp and one that is burning. The lamp was there and it was a good lamp, but now it is shedding light too, and that is its real function. And love makes one calmer about many things, and in that way, one is more fit for one's work.»
