Quotes About Attachment

L]ove for a particular object is only the actualization and concentration of lingering love with regard to one person; it is not, as the idea of romantic love would have it, that there is only the one person in the world whom one can love, that it is the great chance of one's life to find that person, and that love for him results in withdrawal from all others.
~ Erich Fromm

Es preciso pasar por toda una serie de experiencias de amor fallidas para no buscar inconscientemente en la pareja un eco del amor materno y paterno. Este tardío proceso de desvinculación del amor materno y paterno suele ir acompañado de dolorosas experiencias de renuncia y pérdida. Quien decide resolver un problema mediante el amor ha de tener valor suficiente para superar los desengaños y permanecer paciente a pesar de los reveses.
~ Erich Fromm

Rado bih je pozvao telefonom, ali sam se prisilio da ne u?inim to. Hteo sam da ne mislim toliko na nju. Hteo sam da je primim kao neo?ekivani dar koji donosi sre?u, dar koji je došao i koji ?e oti?i, samo toliko i ništa više. Nisam hteo dopustiti da se u meni razvije misao da bi ovo moglo biti nešto više. Znao sam isuviše dobro da svaka ljubav nosi u sebi i želju za ve?noš?u. Otuda i njene ve?ite muke. Ne ostaje ništa. Ništa.
~ Erich Maria Remarque
