Once we love we are vulnerable: there is no such thing as loving while being ready to consider whether to love, just like that. And the loves that may hurt the least are not the best loves. When we love we accept the dangers of injury and loss……we do not think these risks so great as to cause us to cease loving……If we are loving we do not regret our love.-John Rawls, A Theory of Justice, p.502
一旦有愛,人即脆弱:世間沒有所謂熱戀之中卻同時思量應否去愛之事。最不易受傷的愛,不是最深的愛。當我們愛,就須承受傷害和失去之痛。但我們不會說,因為這些風險太大,所以乾脆不愛。人在愛中不言悔!john rawls
今日喺朋友facebook status quote見到, 抄落來同大家分享
If you read that in the original context, you will find he refers that the pursuit of justice is a matter of love, in that you will just die for what you’re pursuing.
A refreshing quote. Thanks, Sophie. You have motivated me to pick up that book to read again.
Chris, you are welcome ar!
