The Urgency of Change Quotes

“Do you know what it means to live without psychological comparison when all your life you have been conditioned to compare—at school, at games, at the university, and in the office? Everything is comparison. To live without comparison! Do you know what it means? It means no dependence, no self-sufficiency, no seeking, no asking; therefore it means to love. Love has no comparison, and so love has no fear. Love is not aware of itself as love, for the word is not the thing.”
― J. Krishnamurti, The Urgency of Change

“Love is not hate, nor jealousy, nor ambition, nor the competitive spirit with its fear of failure. It is not the love of God nor the love of man—which again is a division. Love is not of the one or of the many. When there is love it is personal and impersonal, with and without an object. It is like the perfume of a flower; one or many can smell it: what matters is the perfume, not to whom it belongs.”
― J. Krishnamurti, The Urgency of Change
