《愛的藝術(shù)》作者:艾里希.弗洛姆
“Love is a decision, it is a judgment, it is a promise. If love were only a feeling, there would be no basis for the promise to love each other forever. A feeling comes and it may go. How can I judge that it will stay forever, when my act does not involve judgment and decision?”
愛是一個(gè)決定掂榔,一個(gè)判斷从橘,一個(gè)承諾。如果愛只是一種感覺翎冲,那么相愛到永遠(yuǎn)的承諾就毫無(wú)依據(jù)骚揍。感覺來(lái)了宏榕,還可能會(huì)消失治力。如果我的行動(dòng)沒有涉及判斷和決定眶熬,那我怎么能判斷這是永恒的愛呢妹笆?
“Love isn't something natural. Rather it requires discipline, concentration, patience, faith, and the overcoming of narcissism. It isn't a feeling, it is a practice.”
愛不是自然而然的块请。相反,它要求自律拳缠,專注墩新,耐心,信念窟坐,還要克服自戀海渊。愛不是一種感覺,而是一種實(shí)踐哲鸳。
“Paradoxically, the ability to be alone is the condition for the ability to love.”
聽起來(lái)自相矛盾臣疑,但有能力獨(dú)處是有能力去愛的前提條件。
“Infantile love follows the principle: "I love because I am loved."
Mature love follows the principle: "I am loved because I love."
Immature love says: "I love you because I need you."
Mature love says: "I need you because I love you.”
幼稚的愛遵循的原則是:“我愛因?yàn)槲冶粣坩悴ぁ讯沈!?/p>
成熟的愛遵循的原則是:“我被愛因?yàn)槲覑邸懒豹!?/p>
不成熟的愛說(shuō):“我愛你因?yàn)槲倚枰丬脚獭!?/p>
成熟的愛說(shuō):“我需要你因?yàn)槲覑勰懔郴唷儒老!?/p>
“The task we must set for ourselves is not to feel secure, but to be able to tolerate insecurity.”
我們必須給自己布置的任務(wù)不是擁有安全感,而是能夠忍受沒有安全感记餐。
“Love is a power which produces love.”
愛是一種產(chǎn)生愛的力量驮樊。
“Modern man thinks he loses something - time - when he does not do things quickly. Yet he does not know what to do with the time he gains, except kill it.”
現(xiàn)代人認(rèn)為如果自己不快速做事,就失去了某樣?xùn)|西——時(shí)間片酝。但他們卻并不知道如何處理自己獲得的時(shí)間囚衔,只能把它打發(fā)掉。
“Love is an activity, not a passive affect.”
愛是一種積極的行為雕沿,而不是一種被動(dòng)的情感练湿。
“Giving is the highest expression of potency.”
給予是最高級(jí)的影響力。
“Education is identical with helping the child realize his potentialities.”
教育等同于幫助孩子發(fā)揮他的潛力审轮。
