“Freedom and love go together. Love is not a reaction. If I love you because you love me, that is mere trade, a thing to be bought in the market; it is not love. To love is not to ask anything in return, not even to feel that you are giving something - and it is only such love that can know freedom.”
Jiddu Krishnamurti
“The purpose of relationship is not to have another who might complete you, but to have another with whom you might share your completeness.”
Neale Donald Walsch
