Love, the feeling can be recaptured. S. Covey

Love is a value that is actualized through loving actions. Successful people subordinate feelings to values. S. Covey

If you want to study love, study those who sacrifice for others even for people who don't love in return. S. Covey

Love is something you do. Sacrifices you make. The giving of self, like a mother bringing a newborn into the world. S. Covey

If our feelings control our actions, it is because we have abdicated our responsibility and empowered them to do so. S. Covey

Hollywood has generally scripted us to believe that we are not responsible, that we are a product of our feelings. But that is not reality.

Love is a verb. Love - the feeling - is a fruit of love, the verb. So love, serve, listen, appreciate. S. Covey

If these findings are confirmed in other clinical trials, taking aspirin may become a simple and relatively safe tool to help women with breast cancer live longer, healthier lives.http://htxt.it/HsCD

The findings of the U.S. study provide the most compelling evidence yet of the power of the cheap painkiller. http://htxt.it/kA2X

Taking aspirin on six or seven days cut the death risk by 64 per cent, but the risk of spreading fell only 43 per cent. http://htxt.it/X9N7

The greatest protection comes from taking the drug two, three, four or five times a week, a study has found.http://htxt.it/eTPG

Women with breast cancer who take aspirin at least twice a week can more than double their chance of surviving, researchers say. http://htxt.it/LIAS
