The psychological and physiological mechanism of love is so complex that at a certain period in his life a young man must concentrate all his energy on coming to grips with it, and in this way he misses the actual content of the love: the woman he loves. (in this he is much like a young violinist who cannot concentrate on the emotional content of a piece until the technique required to play it comes automatically.)

More From Milan Kundera

Totalitarianism extends to whatever touches it...psychological technique, as it operates in the army or in a great industrial plant, entails a direct action on the family. it involves a psychological adaptation of family life to military or industrial methods, supervision of family life, and training family life for military or industrial service. technique can leave nothing untouched in a civilization. everything is its concern. technique, which is destroying all other civilizations, is more than a simple mechanism: it's a whole civilization in itself.

Just me, just me sweet marie, she loves just me (she also loves maurice mcghee). no she don't, she loves just me (she also loves louise dupree). no she don't, she loves just me (she also loves the willow tree). no she don't, she loves just me! (poor, poor fool, why can't you see she can love others and still love thee.)

From woman, man is born; within woman, man is conceived; to woman he is engaged and married. woman becomes his friend; through woman, the future generations come. when his woman dies, he seeks another woman; to woman he is bound. so why call her bad? from her, kings are born. from woman, woman is born; without woman, there would be no one at all.

This creative mechanism within you is impersonal. it will work automatically and impersonally to achieve goals of success and happiness, or unhappiness and failure, depending upon the goals which you yourself set for it. present it with success goals and it functions as a success mechanism. present it with negative goals, and it operates just as impersonally, and just as faithfully as a failure mechanism.
Goal Creative Negative
We are born of woman, we are conceived in the womb of woman, we are engaged and married to woman. we make friendship with woman and the lineage continued because of woman. when one woman dies, we take another one, we are bound with the world through woman. why should we talk ill of her, who gives birth to kings? the woman is born from woman; there is none without her. only the one true lord is without woman

I am not a mechanism, an assembly of various sections. and it is not because the mechanism is working wrongly, that i am ill. i am ill because of wounds to the soul, to the deep emotional self, and the wounds to the soul take a long, long time, only time can help and patience, and a certain difficult repentance long difficult repentance, realization of life’s mistake, and the freeing oneself from the endless repetition of the mistake which mankind at large has chosen to sanctify.
