Quote by Norman O. Brown

Love without attachment is light.

Love without attachment is light.

Summary

This quote suggests that when we love without attaching ourselves to certain expectations or outcomes, love becomes weightless and free. By emphasizing detachment, it implies that unconditional love is not burdened by possessiveness, control, or fear of loss. Instead, it becomes a liberating force that allows love to flow effortlessly, unencumbered by expectations or restrictions. In this sense, love without attachment is described as "light" because it elicits a sense of ease, freedom, and boundless compassion.

When you Google me, you'll find a lot of people don't like Richard Dreyfuss. Because I'm cocky and I present a cocky attitude. But no one has ever disagreed with the notion I represent, that we need more civic education. So far there's 100 percent support for that.

It has been the experience of a lifetime to work with Cather

It has been the experience of a lifetime to work with Catherine Middleton to create her wedding dress, and I have enjoyed every moment of it. It was such an incredible honor to be asked, and I am so proud of what we and the Alexander McQueen team have created.

Was Du erlebst, kann keine Macht der Welt Dir rauben. (What you have experienced, no power on earth can take from you.) Not only our experiences, but all we have done, whatever great thoughts we may have had and all we have suffered, all this is not lost, though it is past; we have brought it into being. Having been is a kind of being, and perhaps the surest kind.
