Joshua HarrisThe best relationships are between two people who care more about each other's good than their own momentary pleasure.
About This Quote
People want to be in good relationships because they believe they will be better off. But, in most cases, this is not true. A person who is truly happy will find the joy of the company of others in itself, rather than needing someone else present to make them happy. The best relationships are often between people that care more about each other’s good than their own momentary pleasure.
