Quotations by:
    Ahbez, Eden

The greatest thing you’ll ever learn
Is just to love and be loved in return.

Eden Ahbez (1909–1995) American songwriter

“Nature Boy” (1948)

Crestview Music Corp. Music composed by Jimmy Dorsey. The song was a top hit for Nat "King" Cole, and featured in the film Moulin Rouge! (2001). Full lyrics.

Some white people hate black people, and some white people love black people, some black people hate white people, and some black people love white people. So you see it’s not an issue of black and white, it’s an issue of Lovers and Haters.

Eden Ahbez (1909–1995) American songwriter

Quoted by Joe Romersa (1992)

The seasons come and the seasons go, the summer fruit and the winter snow, but here we are, and here we stay — until the time to go away.
Ah, they say, there’s a land that is great, and is grand; there’s no fear, and no pain — we will all live again — and everyone will find the ones they love.

Eden Ahbez (1909–1995) American songwriter

Eden’s Island, “The Wanderer” (1960)
