See some priceless wisdom by Jorge Bucay:
- “A man has no right and obligation to be happy”
- “Being in love means to love similarities and to love - to love differences”
- “The answer to your questions is not in me and in you”
- “The primary duty of man is to be himself and love himself - and only then he will accept others as they are and will love them truly”
- “Do not omnipotent! Set realistic goals and make the best of which you are capable”
- “If you meet selfish people you should not hate them, they probably already have enough problems with themselves”
- “The free man who knows himself is generous, helpful, friendly and able to enjoy equally when he giving and when he receiving”
- “You should never interfere with a stone unless it is in your way”
- “One of the common problems in human relations is that - when something doesn’t work, invariably we tend to hold that outside ourselves”
- “Nobody can do for you what you yourself have to do”
- “Passion is like lightning - you can take a picture of lightning, but you can’t live your whole life like lightning”
- “When you need the other to exist, the relationship turns into addiction. And when we are dependent, we cannot choose. And without freedom there is no choice. And without freedom there is no real love. And without true love can’t be marriages, but can be couples”
- “We are all accustomed to the idea of passionate love as ideal for a relationship. When we love, we become blind and create our own idea for others - such as we want to be. He or she has never meets these preconceived notions”
