Found some awesome quotes about love. Here it goes, from the sermon “Life and Love” by Kris Vallotton.
“Every time someone loves you more than you love you, you will sabotage your relationship with them.”
“You sabotage relationships with people you really value … Everybody whom I wanted to like me, like I had a high value for them, I would be afraid that if they got to know me, they wouldn’t like me, so I would build a case against them before they had a chance to build a case against me, so I could reject them before they had a chance to reject me … The problem is you don’t love yourself.”
“Do you understand that Jesus said, ‘Love your neighbor AS you love yourself’?”
“I can’t love you more than I love me. You say, ‘Well, yes, I can.’ No, you can’t. Jesus said, ‘Love your neighbor as you love yourself.’ I can’t give you what I don’t have. If I possess it in this temple, it works on me before it ever works on you.”
“People like us that have these struggles, we’re really good givers. But what can’t we do? Receive. Why? Because receiving means that I will have to let you give to someone who doesn’t deserve. And what happens when someone who doesn’t deserve it gets stuff? Then they begin to self destruct, because then you just gave a guilty party something they shouldn’t have.”
