„Love between man and man is impossible because there must not be sexual intercourse and friendship between man and woman is impossible because there must be sexual intercourse.“

— James Joyce

„The difference between the love of a man and the love of a woman is that a man will always give reasons for loving, but a woman gives no reasons for loving.“
— Fulton J. Sheen
„There are lots of women who are attracted to tyrannical men. Like moths to a flame. And there are some women who do not need a hero or even a stormy lover but a friend. Just remember that when you grow up. Steer clear of the tryant lovers, and try to locate the ones who are looking for a man as a friend, not because they are feeling empty themselves but because they enjoy making you full too. And remember that friendship between a woman and a man is something much more precious and rare than love: love is actually something quite gross and even clumsy compared to friendship. Friendship includes a measure of sensitivity, attentiveness, generosity, and a finely tuned sense of moderation.“
— Amos Oz
„You must understand that love never keeps a man from pursuing his destiny. If he abandons that pursuit, it's because it wasn't true love.“
— Paulo Coelho
