Everyone should cultivate a secret garden (Esther Perel Quotes)
Today, we turn to one person to provide what an entire village once did: a sense of grounding, meaning, and continuity.

(Esther Perel Quotes)

Eroticism thrives in the space between the self and the other (Esther Perel Quotes)
Love rests on two pillars: surrender and autonomy. Our need for togetherness exists alongside our need for separateness (Esther Perel Quotes)
It’s hard to feel attracted to someone who has abandoned her sense of autonomy (Esther Perel Quotes)
At the same time, eroticism in the home requires active engagement and willful intent. It is an ongoing resistance to the message that marriage is serious, more work than play; and that passion is for teenagers and the immature. We must unpack our ambivalence about pleasure, and challenge our pervasive discomfort with sexuality, particularly in the context of family. Complaining of sexual boredom is easy and conventional. Nurturing eroticism in the home is an act of open defience (Esther Perel Quotes)
Romantics value intensity over stability. Realists value security over passion. But both are often disappointed, for few people can live happily at either extreme (Esther Perel Quotes)
