Desire and love act at cross purposes. love is a net cast on eternity, desire is a stratagem to be spared the chores of net weaving. True to their nature, love would strive to perpetuate the desire. Desire, on the other hand, would shun love's shackles.
Zygmunt Bauman (Liquid Love: On the Frailty of Human Bonds)
In other words, it is not in craving after ready-made, complete and finished things that love finds its meaning ― but in the urge to participate in the becoming of such things. Love is akin to transcendence; it is but another name for creative drive and as such is fraught with risks, as all creation is never sure where it is going to end.

Ser dos significa aceptar un futuro indeteminado

يبدو أن العالم يفضل تكريم فلاسفته برسم لوحات تذكارية لهم، وليس بالإنصات الجيد لهم

And the enticement to seek a rose without thorns is never far away and always difficult to resist.
Zygmunt Bauman (Liquid Love: On the Frailty of Human Bonds)
Os filhos estão entre as aquisições mais caras que o consumidor médio pode fazer ao longo de toda a sua vida. Em termos puramente monetários, eles custam mais do que um carro luxuoso do ano, uma volta ao mundo em um cruzeiro ou até mesmo uma mansão. Pior ainda, o custo total tende a crescer com o tempo, e seu volume não pode ser fixado de antemão nem estimado com algum grau de certeza. [...] Além disso, ter filhos é, em nossa época, uma questão de decisão, não um acidente - o que aumenta a ansiedade. Tê-los ou não é comprovadamente a decisão com maiores consequências e de maior alcance que existe, e portanto também a mais angustiante e estressante.

E assim é numa cultura consumista como a nossa, que favorece o produto pronto para uso imediato, o prazer passageiro, a satisfação instantânea, resultados que não exijam esforços prolongados, receitas testadas, garantias de seguro total e devolução do dinheiro. A promessa de aprender a arte de amar é a oferta (falsa, enganosa, mas que se deseja ardentemente que seja verdadeira) de construir a “experiência amorosa” à semelhança de outras mercadorias, que fascinam e seduzem exibindo todas essas características e prometem desejo sem ansiedade, esforço sem suor e resultados sem esforço. Sem humildade e coragem não há amor. Essas duas qualidades são exigidas, em escalas enormes e contínuas, quando se ingressa numa terra inexplorada e não-mapeada. E é a esse território que o amor conduz ao se instalar entre dois ou mais seres humanos.
Zygmunt Bauman (Liquid Love: On the Frailty of Human Bonds)
Em todo amor há pelo menos dois seres, cada qual a grande incógnita na equação do outro. É isso que faz o amor parecer um capricho do destino – aquele futuro estranho e misterioso, impossível de ser descrito antecipadamente, que deve ser realizado ou protelado, acelerado ou interrompido. Amar significa abrir-se ao destino, a mais sublime de todas as condições humanas, em que o medo se funde ao regozijo num amálgama irreversível. Abrir-se ao destino significa, em última instância, admitir a liberdade no ser: aquela liberdade que se incorpora no Outro, o companheiro no amor. “A satisfação no amor individual não pode ser atingida sem a humildade, a coragem, a fé e a disciplina verdadeiras”, afirma Erich Fromm – apenas para acrescentar adiante, com tristeza, que em “uma cultura na qual são raras essas qualidades, atingir a capacidade de amar será sempre, necessariamente, uma rara conquista”.

Añora la unidad y hace de todo ser humano alguien incompleto y deficiente a menos que se una a otro, por más realizado y autosuficiente que sea en otros aspectos.

إن "سياسات التسمية" هي من أهم جبهات التّحرر الفكري والاجتماعي والسياسي، لأن المفاهيم المغلوطة والتسميات الزور هي السجن الحقيقي الذي يعوق العقل ويحرمه من فهم العالم.. بل وفهم الوحي، ولذلك فإن كشف زيف المفاهيم التي يتم تسويقها عن الحرية والإرادة الإنسانية والسعادة يغدو مهمة واجبة.. والعناية بالمفاهيم التي نراها أقوم سبيلاً يصبح واجب الوقت والفريضة المُهمَلة.

والحق أن الحب والصداقة وغيرهما من العلاقات تُبنى على تكامل مجموع عناصر مختلفة، وإقامة علاقة بينها، واستثمار وقت فيها والاستعداد للتضحية من أجلها توقعاً لكسب عوائد عادة مؤجلة، وبالتالي لكي تصل الحداثة إلى هذه اللحظة من تفكيك مقومات الوجود الإنساني بعد فك الارتباط بين الإنسان وربه وبين خياراته وثواب الدنيا أو الآخرة، هو أنها هدمت بنيان الأسرة كإطار للعلاقة الوجدانية للفرد، بدءاً من تفكيك عمليات التحديث للأسرة الممتدة بنمو المجتمع الصناعي وصعود المدن الحديثة، ثم استخدمت العلم في فك الارتباط بين أربعة مكونات للأسرة: الحب (العاطفة)، والجنس (المتعة)، والإنجاب (الذرية) والرعاية (المودة والرحمة)، ثم حولت كل منها إلى سلعة يمكن تسويقها أو لخدمة تقوم الدولة -وليس المجتمع- بتوفيرها.

والحق أن العلمانية لم تكن مشروعاً سياسياً فقط، فَفَكّ الارتباط بين الغيب والعالم كان يعني أيضاً فقدان المجتمع مكانته التي تعلو على آحاد الأفراد وتحتويهم في الوقت ذاته، فما هو متجاوز للمادي ليس عالم الغيب فقط بل كل المعاني المتعالية، فإن تم الانتقاص من الغيب انفرط العقد.

Given enough time, the mobiles would train the eyes to look without seeing.

Faced with such players, the rest of the participants of the game – and particularly the involuntary ones among them, those who don’t ‘love’ or cannot afford ‘to be on the move’ – stand little chance. Joining in the game is not a realistic choice for them – but neither have they the choice of not trying. Flitting between flowers in search of the most fragrant is not their option; they are stuck to places where flowers, fragrant or not, are rare – and so can only watch haplessly as the few that there are fade or rot.
Zygmunt Bauman (Liquid Life)
With skills falling out of demand in less time than it takes to acquire and master them, with educational credentials losing value against their cost of purchase by the year or even turning into ‘negative equity’ long before their allegedly lifelong ‘sell-by’ date, with places of work disappearing with little or no warning, and with the course of life sliced into a series of ever shorter one-off projects, life prospects look increasingly like the haphazard convolutions of smart rockets in search of elusive, ephemeral and restless targets, rather than a predesigned and predetermined, predictable trajectory of a ballistic missile.

Experience of others can be known only as a processed, interpreted story of what the others lived through.

It is because the moral economy has little need of the market that market forces are up in arms against it.
Zygmunt Bauman (Liquid Love: On the Frailty of Human Bonds)
Survival (animal survival, physical, bodily survival) can do without self-love. As a matter of fact, it may do better without it than in its company! The roads of the survival instincts and of self-love may run parallel, but they may also run in opposite directions… Self-love may rebel against the continuation of life. Self-love may prompt us to invite the danger and to welcome the threat. Self-love can prod us to reject a life that is not up to our love’s standards and therefore unworthy of living. Because what we love in our self-love is the selves fit to be loved. What we love is the state, or the hope, of being loved. Of being objects worthy of love, being recognized as such, and given the proof of that recognition. In short: in order to have self-love, we need to be loved. Refusal of love – denial of the status of a love-worthy object – breeds self-hatred. Self-love is built out of the love offered to us by others. If substitutes are used for its construction, they must be likenesses, however fraudulent, of such love. Others must love us first, so that we can begin to love ourselves.

It is the turnover, not the volume of purchases, that measures success in the life of homo consumens.

Con l'attiva cooperazione di governi e di altri personaggi pubblici che trovano nell'opera di appoggio e fomentazione del pregiudizio comune gli unici strumenti sostitutivi di una politica tesa ad affrontare le cause reali dell'incertezza esistenziale che ossessiona i loro elettori, i "rifugiati" [...] sostituiscono streghe maligne, fantasmi di malfattori impenitenti e altri spiritelli e spauracchi vari che popolano le leggende metropolitane.

Talvez seja por isso que, em vez de relatar suas experiências e expectativas utilizando termos como “relacionar-se” e “relacionamentos”, as pessoas falem cada vez mais (auxiliadas e conduzidas pelos doutos especialistas) em conexões, ou “conectar-se” e “ser conectado”. Em vez de parceiros, preferem falar em “redes”. Quais são os méritos da linguagem da “conectividade” que estariam ausentes da linguagem dos “relacionamentos”? (...) uma “rede” serve de matriz tanto para conectar quanto para desconectar; não é possível imaginá-la sem as duas possibilidades. Na rede, elas são escolhas igualmente legítimas, gozam do mesmo status (...) A palavra “rede” sugere momentos nos quais “se está em contato” intercalados por períodos de movimentação a esmo. Nela as conexões são estabelecidas e cortadas por escolha.
