Se ami un fiore non coglierlo,
lascialo alla natura,
altrimenti perderà il suo profumo e appassirà.
Non sarà più lo splendido fiore che amavi.

[.]
Se ami una donna non cercare di cambiarla,
non cercare di “possederla”.
Perché non sarà più la stessa donna che amavi.
L’amore esige rispetto.
L’amore non possiede, dona.
