I said: Did you propose to her? He said in astonishment: Who knows? I said: Do you think that you proposed marriage to her because you love her? He said: Of course. I said while looking firmly into his eyes: Never. You proposed marriage to her because you wanted to possess her. If you are faced with a crisis of possession, not a crisis of love.. and what torments you about it? It is the independence of her personality.. It is your feeling that you cannot submit to this personality and destroy it.. It is stronger than you.. And if you had married her and possessed her, you would have been cured of what you call love..!
