In Their Own Words

"If love is genuinely other-regarding, there must be others who are actually centers whom we are bound to recognize and affirm. Love does not merely bestow value on the neighbor, it also recognizes value in the neighbor ... and seeks to serve that value as something real."

–Timothy P. Jackson
