Indeed, to one for whom having is the main form of relatedness to the world, ideas that cannot easily be pinned down (or penned down) are frightening–like everything else that grows and changes, and thus is not controllable.

Ben sevdiÄŸim insan?n, bana hizmet etmesi için deÄŸil, kendi istediÄŸince dilediÄŸi gibi büyüyüp geliÅŸmesini isterim. EÄŸer bir baÅŸkasm? sevi- yorsam, onu benim yararlanaca??m bir nesne olarak deÄŸil, o olarak al?r, ister erkek olsun, ister kad?n, onunla kendimi bir k?lar?m.

If by anarchy one means that the individual does not acknowledge any kind of authority, the answer is to be found in what has been said about the difference between rational and irrational authority. Rational authority—like a genuine ideal—represents the aims of growth and expansion of the individual. It is, therefore, in principle never in conflict with the individual and his real, and not his pathological, aims.

There exists no more difficult art than living. For other arts and sciences, numerous teachers are to be found everywhere. Even young people believe that they have acquired these in such a way, that they can teach them to others: throughout the whole of life, one must continue to learn to live and, what will amaze you even more, throughout life one must learn to die. SENECA

He who knows nothing, loves nothing. He who can do nothing understands nothing. He who understands nothing is worthless. But he who understands also loves, notices, sees …. The more knowledge is inherent in a thing, the greater the love …. Anyone who imagines that all fruits ripen at the same time as the strawberries knows nothing about grapes.

A meno che non traggano piacere l'uno dall'altro, perché si stringono come amanti? Senza la Terra, come fiorirebbero il fiore e la pianta? Che cosa produrrebbe l'acqua o il calore del Cielo?

In contrasto con l'unione simbiotica, l'amore maturo ha condizione di preservare la propria integrità, la propria individualità.

El amor a la vida es el núcleo, un núcleo muy concreto y real, de todo tipo de amor. Quien crea que ama a los seres humanos sin amar la vida, puede desear apegarse a otra persona, pero no amarla de verdad. Nos imaginamos entonces a una persona que ama todo lo que crece y está vivo, que se siente atraída por el crecimiento infantil, por la maduración. Para semejante persona, incluso lo que no está vivo, como una piedra o el agua, se convierte en algo vivo.

Real conflicts between two people, those which do not serve to cover up or to project, but which are experienced on the deep level of inner reality to which they belong, are not destructive. They lead to clarification, they produce a catharsis from which both persons emerge with more knowledge and more strength.

The problem of education hinges on this point. If parents were more developed themselves and rested in their own center, the opposition between authoritarian and laissez-faire education would hardly exist. Needing this being-authority, the child reacts to it with great eagerness; on the other hand, the child rebels against pressure or neglect by people who show by their own behavior that they themselves have not made the effort they expect from the growing child.)

Hatred is a passionate wish for destruction; love is a passionate affirmation of an object; it is not an affect but an active striving and inner relatedness, the aim of which is the happiness, growth, and freedom of its object. It is a readiness which, in principle, can turn to any person and object including ourselves.

We have reached a state of individuation in which only the fully developed mature personality can make fruitful use of freedom; if the individual has not developed his reason and his capacity for love, he is incapable of bearing the burden of freedom and individuality, and tries to escape into artificial ties which give him a sense of belonging and rootedness.

Living structures can be only if they become; they can exist only if they change. Change and growth are inherent qualities of the life process.

BaÅŸkalar?n?n deÄŸiÅŸebileceÄŸine inanç duymam için benim deÄŸiÅŸme deneyimini yaÅŸam?? olmam gerekir.

Joy, then, is what we experience in the process of growing nearer to the goal of becoming ourselves.

Gustavo Solivellas dice: El amor inmaduro dice: "te amo porque te necesito". El maduro dice: "te necesito porque te amo" (Erich Fromm)

Man is not a subject opposing the world in order to transform it; he is in the world making his being in the world the occasion for constant self-transformation

PiÅŸmanl?k, özür dilemekten daha öte bir ÅŸeydir. güçlü bir duygudur. PiÅŸman olan bir kimse, kendisinden ve yapt??? ÅŸeyden utan?r. Gerçek piÅŸmanl?k ve onunla birlikte varolan utanma duygusu, daha önce yap?lm?? olan yanl??l?klar?n (suçlar?n) tekrarlanmamas?n? saÄŸlayan yegane insani duygudur. (Hayat? Sevmek)

The limits of the growth of individuation and self are set partly by individual conditions, but essentially by social conditions

tornar-se consciente de que o amor é uma arte, assim como viver é uma arte; se quisermos aprender como se ama, devemos proceder do mesmo modo por que agiríamos se quiséssemos aprender qualquer outra arte, seja a música, a pintura, a carpintaria, ou a arte da medicina ou da engenharia

o amor não é um sentimento em que qualquer um se possa comprazer, sem levar em conta o nível de maturidade que alcançou.
