    ... Love is the only eye, but people say that
    love is blind because they cannot do anything
    about it. It takes possession and they are no
    longer in control, they are thrown off-center.
    They say it is blind because reason is not there
    -- it is irrational. It is like a madness; it is like a
    high fever; it is something that has happened
    to you, like a disease. It appears to be so,
    because you are no longer in control -- life has
    taken over.

    Truth is of the quality of love. That’s why Jesus
    goes on saying, "Love is God," or "God is
    love," because the quality is of the same
    source. Truth also happens like love, you don’t
    do anything about it. You don’t even knock on
    the door....
