Joshua Harris Quotes

Love is a mess, at best, and I figure it can be very real in spite of all the things people try to attach to it.

There is nothing you can control about love.

I hate the whole concept of comfort! It's like when people say: 'Well we're not really in love but we're in a comfortable relationship.' You're abandoning a lot of ideas when you're too into comfort.

Love is an attempt at penetrating another being, but it can only succeed if the surrender is mutual.

Most of us fall in love with someone's persona and spend the next three to five years discovering who that person really is. If you can stay connected through that process of raw vulnerability, I think you have a shot at the prize of knowing and accepting another human being for who and what they really are after years of highs and lows.
