“Immature love says: ‘I love you because I need you.’ Mature love says: ‘I need you because I love you.’”
“Love is a decision, it is a judgment, it is a promise” — Erich Fromm
“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.”
