Brandeis
- “The cruelest lies are often told in silence. A man may have sat in a room for hours and not opened his teeth, and yet come out of that room a disloyal friend or a vile calumniator.

- “Are you fleeing from Love because of a single humiliation?
What do you know of Love except the name?
Love has a hundred forms of pride and disdain,
and is gained by a hundred means of persuasion.

it has no interest in a disloyal companion.
The human being resembles a tree; its root is a covenant with God:
that root must be cherished with all one’s might.” ~ Rumi , Disloyal quotes love -

They cast off the form of truth because it never has been to them more than a form. They endure not, because they never have tasted that the Lord is gracious; and they never have had experience of His power and love, because they have never known their own weakness and need.” ~ John Henry Newman

Each feels the other has no manners, is disloyal, corrupt, insensitive – and has never put in an honest day’s work in its life.” ~ Elaine Dundy
