Quote by Benjamin Constant about Passion and Inner Conflict

„I think of nothing but you, but perhaps I can still fight it. For the last two days I have seen nothing but you. All your charm, which I have always feared, has entered my heart. So much so that I can hardly breathe […]. I may seem crazy to you; but I see your gaze, I repeat your words to myself […]. I am right if I am crazy. I would be crazy if I were not.“

"A thought transfixed me: for the first time in my life, I saw the truth as it is set into song by so many poets, proclaimed as the final wisdom by so many thinkers. The truth - that love is the ultimate and the highest goal to which man can aspire.[...] Love is the only way to grasp another human being in the innermost core of his personality. No one can become fully aware of the very essence of another human being unless he loves him. By his love he is enabled to see the essential traits and features in the beloved person; and even more, he sees that which is potential in him, which is not yet actualized but yet ought to be actualized. Furthermore, by his love, the loving person enables the beloved person to actualize these potentialities. By making him aware of what he can be and of what he should become, he makes these potentialities come true." Viktor Emil Frankl

"If you tame me, then we shall need each other. To me, you will be unique in all the world. To you, I shall be unique in all the world…if you tame me, it will be as if the sun came to shine on my life. I shall know the sound of a step that will be different from all the others. Other steps send me hurrying back underneath the ground. Yours will call me, like music, out of my burrow" Antoine de Saint-Exupéry
