“Love isn’t something natural. Rather it requires discipline, concentration, patience, faith, and the overcoming of narcissism. It isn’t a feeling, it is a practice.”
― Fromm, Eric, The Art of Loving
“You don’t need to justify your love, you don’t need to explain your love, you just need to practice your love. Practice creates the master.”
― Don Miguel Ruiz, The Mastery of Love: A Practical Guide to the Art of Relationship
“Love the person, but give the person total freedom. Love the person, but from the very beginning make it clear that you are not selling your freedom.”
― Osho, Being in Love: How to Love with Awareness and Relate Without Fear
“Love is the opposite of [lust]: respecting the other as an end unto himself or herself. When you love someone as an end unto himself, then there is no feeling of hurt; you become enriched through it. Love makes everybody rich.”
― Osho, Being in Love: How to Love with Awareness and Relate Without Fear
“I love you without knowing how, or when, or from where. I love you simply, without problems or pride: I love you in this way because I do not know any other way of loving but this, in which there is no I or you, so intimate that your hand upon my chest is my hand, so intimate that when I fall asleep your eyes close.”
― Pablo Neruda, 100 Love Sonnets
“And what is the right woman, the right man? Someone who wants to go in the same direction as you do, someone who is compatible with your views and your values– emotionally, physically, economically, spiritually.”
― Miguel Ruiz, The mastery of love
