“La terapia vendría después, cuando él intentara saber por qué me había dejado y yo intentase superar la angustia de haber sido abandonado; cuando viniesen todas las preguntas que no nos hicimos en ese momento y los comentarios sesudos, y el intento de racionalizar cada cosa que nos pasó. Y la comprobación asombrosa de que uno es un verdadero ignorante sobre su propia vida y que entonces, cómo pretender entender mínimamente a alguien que no es uno por más cerca que esté. Que vos sos vos, él es él y no hay manera de que él seas vos o viceversa. De que eso de "sos mi vida" es una mentira tan grande como un globo que se infla más allá de lo posible. Y explota. En tu cara.”

“Es preciso pasar por toda una serie de experiencias de amor fallidas para no buscar inconscientemente en la pareja un eco del amor materno y paterno. Este tardío proceso de desvinculación del amor materno y paterno suele ir acompañado de dolorosas experiencias de renuncia y pérdida. Quien decide resolver un problema mediante el amor ha de tener valor suficiente para superar los desengaños y permanecer paciente a pesar de los reveses.”

“In the Judeo-Christian tradition, we carry forward the basic insight our fundamental relationship to the world is one of love. Christians say that “God is Love,” that God created the universe out of love. The source of God’s Creation is love, and our relationship to the possibility of meaning within this created world is in and through love. The Christian community is a reciprocal relationship among subjects who love and are loved. The subject maintains the meaning of God’s Creation by taking up a Christ-like love toward others. The appearance of meaning in the world—love’s product—is always a manifestation of the divine. Liberalism turns away from this entire tradition of thought, in party because of its association with religion, and in part because this tradition resists the analytic form of reason. For liberalism, religion is individualized and privatized, and thus it cannot be used in the explanation or justification of a public space. If it does invade the public, it threatens irrationality. But religion is no less an effort to understand the character of our experience, and even a secular philosophy must not ignore that experience. We cannot simply deny what we cannot place within our categories of analysis. (221)”
