I already love in you your beauty, but I am only beginning to
love in you that which is eternal and ever precious - your heart,
your soul.
Beauty one could get to know and fall in love with in one hour
and cease to
love it as speedily;
but the soul one must learn to know.
Believe me,
nothing on earth is given without labour,
even love, the most beautiful
and natural of feelings.
~ Leo Tolstoy
