The Path to Love: Spiritual Strategies for Healing Book

Few excerpts I found particularly meaningful:

The reason that ego and love are not compatible comes down to this: you cannot take your ego into the unknown, where love wants to lead. If you follow love, your life will become uncertain, and the ego craves certainty. You will have to surrender to another person and the ego prizes its own will above anyone else's.

Energy is a self-renewing commodity. Its flow isn't diminished by how much you take away. Love is eternal and unbounded, it is only we who take tiny sips from its infinite ocean.

Equality isn't based upon external factors or images. We all have an equal right to be appreciated, respected and understood.

To accept another person means accepting his/her emotions. There is nothing more basic or intrinsic. .. You have to feel that your partner wants to understand you and your feelings before you can share experiences you barely understand yourself.
Courtship succeeds to the extent that a man and woman can dismantle their defenses; it fails to the extent that they build new defenses together.
