“When we're incomplete, we're always searching for somebody to complete us. When, after a few years or a few months of a relationship, we find that we're still unfulfilled, we blame our partners and take up with somebody more promising. This can go on and on--series polygamy--until we admit that while a partner can add sweet dimensions to our lives, we, each of us, are responsible for our own fulfillment. Nobody else can provide it for us, and to believe otherwise is to delude ourselves dangerously and to program for eventual failure every relationship we enter.”
Tom Robbins
“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
“If there is such a thing as a good marriage, it is because it resembles friendship rather than love.”
Michel de Montaigne
“You are just as attached to what you hate as what you love”
Domo Geshe
“My love for you is like a rushing waterfall, it's pure and overflowing.”
Jeremy Cheatwood
“love your hatred, but don't hate your love”
Miteb Khantash Alqarni
“At the beginning and at the end of love, the two lovers are embarrassed to find themselves alone.”
Jean de la Bruyere
