Translating Jung and Lacan

All reciprocal love
        it's not the same ...

       Feeling love,
       if you can ... not
       if you can is to deliver love
       to whom love does not wish ...
       You can, and you must
       be super strong ...

        If we said
        the truth of reality,
        few yet
        would believe ...

        Symptom, it's a pain
        that you only sense when
        feel...

        Say something,
        it's one thing ... to be
        understood, it's another ...

        Freedom is an act
        to commit madness
        without going insane ...

         What is known,
         it is not known, until
         let it be said ...

          There is no  common way,
          nor measure
          that fits
          to all... !

Ps quotes from these famous thinkers
     rethought and complemented by me,
     without however escaping from central axis ...
