“A boy makes his girl jealous of other women. A gentleman makes other women jealous of his girl”
Rana Magdy
“A loving relationship is one in which the loved one is free to be himself -- to laugh with me, but never at me; to cry with me, but never because of me; to love life, to love himself, to love being loved. Such a relationship is based upon freedom and can never grow in a jealous heart.”
Leo F. Buscaglia
“Jealousy would be far less torturous if we understood that love is a passion entirely unrelated to our merits.”
Paul Eldridge
“There are many things that we would throw away if we were not afraid that others might pick them up.”
Oscar Wilde
“Jealousy is a disease, love is a healthy condition. The immature mind often mistakes one for the other, or assumes that the greater the love, the greater the jealousy -- in fact, they're almost incompatible; one emotion hardly leaves room for the other. Both at once can produce unbearable turmoil...”
Robert Heinlein
“Love that is fed by jealousy dies hard”
Ovid
“Jealousy is indeed a poor medium to secure love, but it is a secure medium to destroy one's self-respect. For jealous people, like dope-fiends, stoop to the lowest level and in the end inspire only disgust and loathing.”
Emma Goldman
