1 john 5:2
As I have loved you,
Love one another.
This new commandment:
Love one another.
By this shall men know
Ye are my disciples,
If ye have love
One to another.
- Love One Another, hymn 308
I found some interesting quotes on loving one another. They aren’t all beautiful but they are worthy of contemplating all the same.
Our maturity will be judged by how well we are able to agree to disagree and yet continue to love one another, to care for one another, and cherish one another and seek the greater good of the other.
-Desmond Tutu
You can always make a lot of people love one another so long as there are a smaller number outside the group for them to kick.
- Sigmund Freud
We are obliged to love one another. We are not strictly bound to 'like' one another. Love governs the will: 'liking' is a matter of sense and sensibility. Nevertheless, if we really love others it will not be too hard to like them also.
- Thomas Merton
For one human being to love another; that is perhaps the most difficult of all our tasks, the ultimate, the last test and proof, the work for which all other work is but preparation.
- Rainer Maria Rilke
