Love

"Human love is directed to the other person for his own sake, spiritual love loves him for Christ's sake."

"Human love constructs its own image of the other person, of what he is and what he should become.  It takes the life of the other person into its own hands.  Spiritual love recognizes the true image of the other person which he has received from Jesus Christ."

Dietrich Bonhoeffer, Life Together
