Quotes About Sacrifice

Perhaps the reason we are unable to love is that we yearn to be loved, that is, we demand something from our partner instead of delivering ourselves up to demand-free and asking but his company.

Onun tümüyle kendisinin olmas?n?, kendisini bütün varl???yla ona vermeyi istiyordu, ama ona her ÅŸeyi vermeye ne kadar çok çabalarsa, pek derin olmayan, yüzeysel bir aÅŸk?n ya da flört etmenin gerektirdiÄŸi ÅŸeyleri genç adamdan esirgediÄŸi duygusuna da o kadar çok kap?l?yordu.Kendisini ciddiliÄŸi hafiflikle birleÅŸtirememekle k?n?yordu.

It is completely selfless love: Tereza didn't want anything; She didn't ever ask him to love her back. Nor has she ever asked herself questions like: does he love me? Does he love me more than I love him? Perhaps all the questions we ask of love, to measure and save it, have the additional effect of cutting it short. The reason we are unable to love is that we yearn to be loved.

Cel care se pred? altuia, soldatul care devine prizonier e dator, mai târziu, s? arunce toate armele de care dispune. ?i, V?zându-se lipsit de ap?rare, nu se poate st?pâni s? nu întrebe când anume se va produce lovitura. Pot spune, aÈ™adar, c? dragostea era, pentru Franz, o aÈ™teptare neîncetat? a loviturii.

Se divorziamo, in fondo nonn cambierà nulla! Non perderai nulla! Ti lascio tutto quello che ho! -Non è questione di quello che mi lasci - disse lei. -E allora di che? -Di amore - sorrise lei. -Di amore? - si meraviglió Franz. -L'amore è lotta - disse Marie- Claude, sempre soridendo. -Lotterò a lungo. Fino alla fine. -L'amore è lotta? Io non ho nessunissima voglia di lottare. - disse Franz e usci.

El amor que había entre él y Teresa era bello, pero también fatigoso: tenía que estar permanentemente ocultando algo, disfrazándolo, fingiendo, arreglándolo, manteniéndola contenta, consolándola, demostrando ininterrumpidamente su amor, siendo acusado por sus celos, por su sufrimiento, por sus sueños, sintiéndose culpable, justificándose y disculpándose. Aquel esfuerzo había desaparecido ahora y permanecía la belleza
