“You will notice that what we are aiming at when we fall in love is a very strange paradox. The paradox consists of the fact that, when we fall in love, we are seeking to re-find all or some of the people to whom we were attached as children.

So that love contains in it the contradiction: The attempt to return to the past and the attempt to undo the past.”
