Everyone who has too much of an extraordinary quality hurts those who don't have it, and he felt bad that he loved so much. In matters of affection, his fault was the excess. One of his phrases gives an idea of his way of loving: “to oppress with treats”

He, who thought like a prophet, loved like a woman. Whoever gives himself to men is devoured by them, and he gave himself whole; but it is a wonderful law of nature that only what is given is complete; and one does not begin to possess life until we empty our own without hesitation and without charge
