“Finally, if you are aware that no one else can make you happy, and that happiness is the result of love coming out of you, this becomes the greatest mastery of the Toltec, the Mastery of Love.”
― Miguel Ruiz, The Mastery of Love: A Practical Guide to the Art of Relationship: A Toltec Wisdom Book

“To master a relationship is all about you. The first step is to become aware, to know that everyone dreams his own dream. Once you know this, you can be responsible for your half of the relationship, which is you. If you know that you are only responsible for half of the relationship, you can easily control your half. It is not up to us to control the other half. If we respect, we know that our partner, or friend, or son, or mother, is completely responsible for his or her own half. If we respect the other half, there is always going to be peace in that relationship. There is no war.”

“Once you decide to be a couple, you are there to serve the one you love, the one you choose. You are there to serve your love to your lover, to be each other’s servant. In every kiss, in every touch, you feel you are each there to please the one you love, without expecting anything back. More than sex, it’s about being together. The sex becomes wonderful also, but it’s completely different. Sex becomes a communion; sex becomes a complete surrendering, a dance, an art, a supreme expression of beauty. You can make an agreement that says, “I like you; you are wonderful and you make me feel so good. I’ll bring the flowers, you bring the soft music. We’ll dance, and we’ll both go to the clouds.” It’s beautiful, it’s wonderful, it’s romantic. It’s no longer a war of control; it’s about service. But you can only do that when the love you have for yourself is very strong. 6”

“Only by loving and accepting yourself the way you are can you truly be and express what you are.”
