“So in everything, do to others what you would have them do to you, for this sums up the Law and the Prophets.” –Matthew 7:12

…

“Why, then, was the law given? It was given alongside the promise to show people their sins. But the law was designed to last only until the coming of the child who was promised.” Paul, Galations 3:19

…

“Love God and do whatever you please: for the soul trained in love to God will do nothing to offend the One who is Beloved.” –Augustine of Hippo

…

“Be a sinner, and let your sins be strong (sin boldly), but let your trust in Christ be stronger, and rejoice in Christ who is the victor over sin, death, and the world.” –Martin Luther

…

“There is … in the Galilean origin of Christianity, yet another suggestion which does not fit in very well…. It does not emphasize the ruling Caesar, or the ruthless moralist, or the unmoved mover. It dwells upon the tender elements in the world, which slowly and in quietness operate by love, and it finds purpose in the present immediacy of a kingdom not of this world. Love neither rules, nor is it unmoved; also it is a little oblivious as to morals.” –A.N. Whitehead

Above are just a few my favorite quotes talking about how love knows no boundaries and transcends morality.
