Love is the child of freedom, never that of domination.

I only wish to be the fountain of love from which you drink, every drop promising eternal passion.

Man's main task in life is to give birth to himself, to become what he potentially is. The most important product of his effort is his own personality. One can judge objectively to what extent a person has succeeded in his task, to what degree he has realized his potentialities. If he has failed in his task, one can recognize this failure and judge it for what it is - a moral failure.

Happiness is a man's greatest achievement; it is the response of his total personality to a productive orientation toward himself and the world outside.

Happiness today, I think, is for most people the satisfaction of the eternal suckling: to drink in more this, that, or the other.

We are concerned with things. We are concerned with success. We are concerned with money. We are concerned with instrumentalities.

The task we must set for ourselves is not to feel secure, but to be able to tolerate insecurity.
