The Hermit and the Six-fingered Victor Pelevin
“Love gives meaning to what we do, although in reality there is none. - So, love deceives us? Is it like a dream? - Not. Love is something like love, and sleep is sleep. Everything you do, you only do it out of love. Otherwise, you would just sit on the ground and howl in horror. Or disgust."
The work of Viktor Pelevin, the winner of many literary awards and the author of such famous novels as "Chapaev and the Void", "Generation P", is written in the genre of a philosophical parable.

Hopscotch game by Julio Cortazar
“Many people think that love consists in choosing a woman and marrying her. And they choose, I swear to you, I saw it myself. Is it possible to choose in love, isn’t love like lightning that suddenly strikes you, nailing you to the ground in the middle of the yard. You will say that because-and-choose-what-they-love, but I think that the bore-nao-. Beatrice is not chosen, Juliet is not chosen. They don’t choose the downpour that falls on the heads of those leaving the concert hall and instantly soaks them to the skin.
The action of the experimental novel by the Argentinean writer, written in 1963, unfolds in a very familiar way: its characters drink mate, listen to jazz and stroll along the streets of Paris. However, almost immediately, the author transfers his characters, and with them the readers, to a fantastic reality, which Cortazar offers to travel in several ways: the usual (from the first chapter to the last) and according to a special scheme, which is based on reading the chapters in a certain order. . The novel is rightfully considered the best in the writer's work and a notable example of postmodern literature.

"Extremely Loud, Incredibly Close" by Jonathan Safran Foer
“I put my hand on him. It was always so important to me to touch him. This is what I lived for. I still don't know why. Tiny, non-committal touches. My fingers to his shoulder. Our hips when we are squeezed in a crowded bus. I don't know why, but I needed it. Sometimes I thought: I wish I could sew all these touches into one. How many times do hundreds of thousands of fingers have to touch each other to make love? .. "
Jonathan Foer's novel was published exactly 10 years ago. This is a very touching, deep and heartbreaking story told by a nine-year-old boy, Oscar Schell, whose father was killed during a terrorist attack in one of the Twin Towers on September 11, 2001. The little hero finds a key in one of the vases that used to belong to his father. Inspired by his find, he travels all over New York to learn something new about its owner and about the item itself.

“I almost fell in love with her while we were dancing. Sometimes you don’t even want to look at her, you see that she is a fool, but as soon as she does something nice, I already fall in love. Oh those girls, damn them! They can drive you crazy."
The writer's only novel, The Catcher in the Rye, became a turning point in the history of world literature. The title of the work and the name of the main character, Holden Caulfield, have become unspoken code words for many generations of young rebels - from beatniks and hippies to modern radical movements. This book is about a crazy world and youthful maximalism, about an incredibly strong desire to grow up as soon as possible, and its main idea lies in understanding the value of the freedom to choose one's role in this world.

Love is like the measles, we all need to get over it.
D. K. Jerome
In love-friendship there is not that terrible alienation and terrible attraction of the object, which is in sexual love. Friendship does not have this polarity that attracts opposite elements, and there is no such terrible combination of love and enmity. Friendship is not so connected with the very roots of personality, with the very holistic image and likeness of God in man. Friendship fills the life of the individual with positive content, but does not affect the fundamental principles of the individual. Sex is poured all over the person; friendship is only a part of it, only a spiritual function. But in genuine, deep friendship there is an erotic element - there is, if not a direct, then an indirect connection with sex. Friendship is not an integral, fractional love, it does not contain the final secret of the two, but can approach it. In friendship there is no union of two into one flesh (not only in the sense of the sexual act, but also in another higher sense), there is only touch. Therefore, friendship is a high step in the hierarchy of feelings:
N.V. Berdyaev
Love is a dual feeling, it does not happen without physical attraction, children of procreation. Spiritual love ("Platonic") cannot be recognized as "true", since it does not allow opposition of the spirit to the body: a person is whole, spiritually-corporeal. Spiritual love does not and cannot have any real work behind it; it is beyond will and movement.
V.S. Solovyov
Love in itself is thirst and hunger, but thirst and hunger do not in themselves provide for either the quality of drink or the dignity of food.

Love is creativity; but is it really a matter of indifference what exactly the creator does?
I. A. Ilyin
Love is a certain openness of the soul; but that which is unworthy of love can freely enter into an open soul.
I. A. Ilyin

Loving many - knows women, Loving one - knows Love.
I. Selvinsky

Often only a weak will is hidden under strong passions.
V. Klyuchevsky
Small is that love in which there is no friendship, camaraderie, common interests.
N. Ostrovsky
Love cannot be grown simply from the bowels of a simple zoological sex drive. The powers of "amorous" love can only be found in the experience of non-sexual human sympathy. A young man will never love his bride and wife if he did not love his parents, comrades, friends. And the wider the area of this non-sexual love, the nobler will be sexual love.
A.S. Makarenko
True love cannot be without reciprocity.

Erich Fromm
The most fundamental kind of love, underlying all its types, is brotherly love. By this I mean a sense of responsibility and care, respect and desire to help him in life. This is the kind of love that the Bible says: “Love your neighbor:
Erich Fromm
Love does not primarily characterize a relationship with a specific person; it is a position, an orientation of character, which determines a person’s relationship to the world as a whole, and not to only one “object” of love. in the character of the person experiencing it.
Erich Fromm
There is only one form of intimacy that does not hinder the development of the personality and does not cause contradictions and loss of energy - this is mature love; by this term I designate the complete intimacy between two people, each of whom retains complete independence and, in a sense, separateness. Love truly does not cause conflict and does not lead to loss of energy, because it combines two deep human needs: intimacy and independence.
Erich Fromm
… love is the ability of a mature creative character.
Erich Fromm
Respect is not fear and reverence, it is the ability to see a person as he is, to realize his unique individuality ... I want the person I love to grow and develop for his own sake, in his own way, and not in order to serve to me. If I love another person, I feel one with him, but with him as he is, and not with him as I would like him to be, as a means to my ends.
Erich Fromm
…Love is an art. If we want to learn to love, we must follow this path just as if we wanted to learn any other art - carpentry, the art of medicine or engineering.

M. Ficino
Love without respect does not go far and does not rise high: it is an angel with one wing.
A. Dumas (father)
Who in old age can do without love, he did not love in his youth, for years are not an obstacle to love.
Before you demand that others be worthy of our love, you must earn their love.
V. Klyuchevsky

Beware of exclusive and reckless attachment to another; she is not at all, as it often seems, an example of absolute love. Such self-contained and self-feeding love, which does not need others and does not give them anything, is doomed to self-destruction.
Love is the most complete and noblest of all relationships and includes the best of all relationships: respect, admiration, passion, friendship and intimacy.
The opposite of loneliness is not living together, but intimacy.
After the word "God", "love" is the most worn word in any language.
A friend is someone who gives you the freedom to be yourself.
D.Morrison
Love without respect is short-lived and fickle, respect without love is cold and weak.
B. Johnson
I love you not for who you are, but for who I am when I am with you.
G. Marquez
As it is possible to be jealous without love, so it is possible to love without being jealous.
P. mantegazza
No matter how far science advances, love will always remain an art...

Love is when you want to experience with someone all four seasons.
When you want to run with someone from a spring thunderstorm under a lilac strewn with flowers,
and in the summer to pick berries and swim in the river.
In autumn, cook jam together and seal windows from the cold.
In winter - to help survive a runny nose and long evenings ...
Ray Bradbury
Love is like a tree; it grows of itself, takes deep roots in our whole being, and often continues to grow green and bloom even on the ruins of our heart.

In love, there is always harmony and harmony,
But cross out the letter - and hell will come out!
Lope de Vega
Even if love brings separation, loneliness, sadness - all the same, it is worth the price we pay for it. Paulo Coelho
Marrying is interesting only for love, to marry a girl just because she is pretty is the same as buying an unnecessary thing in the market just because she is good.
A.P. Chekhov.
Love wears such glasses through which copper appears as gold, poverty as wealth, and drops of fire as pearls. Cervantes
She is always bright, emotional, impressive. With her arrival, everything changes - eyes begin to glow, joy appears on the face, a sweet smile, there is always a great mood in the soul. Love is multifaceted, it reunited the opposite, the impossible, so dissimilar. There is a place for quiet happiness, bright flashes, volcanic eruption, calm flow.
It is unusually different in its manifestations. And so every writer, philosopher, scientist and poet describes it in his own way. There are no two quotes about the love of great people who would equally answer the question: “What is love?”.
For some, this is an endless ocean, others compare it with a great gift, a gift of fate, others consider it art, the main engine of all that is beautiful. But all aphorisms are unanimous in that a truly happy person is only one who knows how to love and has known these experiences at least once in his life.
William Shakespeare
To love is to find your own happiness in the happiness of another.
Leibniz G.
To die of love is to live by it.
Victor Hugo
Love is a delightful flower, but it takes courage to walk to the edge of the abyss and pluck it.
