"If a person loves only one other person and is indifferent to all others, his love is not love but a symbiotic attachment, or an enlarged egotism."
"Love is the only sane and satisfactory answer to the problem of human existence."
"Just as love is an orientation which refers to all objects and is incompatible with the restriction to one object, so is reason a human faculty which must embrace the whole of the world with which man is confronted."
"Immature love says: 'I love you because I need you.' Mature love says 'I need you because I love you.'"
