Someone told me that each equation I included in the book would halve the sales. In the end， however， I did put in one equation， Einstein’s famous equation， E = mcI hope that this will not scare off half of my potential readers.

有人告诉我在我书中每个方程式将会降低一半的销售量。结果，我确实放了一个方程式——爱因斯坦著名的等式，E=mc2。我发现这并没有吓跑我一半的潜在读者。

独处的能力就是爱的能力。这对你来说可能看起来矛盾，但其实不是。这是一个存在的真理：只有那些能够独处的人才能爱，才能分享，才能深入另一个人的内心深处——而不占有对方，不依赖对方，不将对方物化，不对对方上瘾。

The ability to be alone is the ability to love. It may look paradoxical to you, but it's not. It is an existential truth: only those who can be alone are able to love, to share, to go into the deepest core of another human being—without possessing the other, without becoming dependent on the other, without reducing the other to a thing, and without becoming addicted to the other.
