Rensselaer Semi-Weekly Republican, Volume 40, Number 59, Rensselaer, Jasper County, 27 March 1908 — Jealousy a Counterfeit. [ARTICLE]

Jealousy a Counterfeit.

Jealousy is a terrible thing. It resembles love, only It is precisely love’s contrary. Instead of wishing for the welfare of the object loved, it desires the dependence of that object upon Itself and Its own triumph. Love la the forgetfulness of self; jealousy Is the most passfonate form of egotism.— Amiel's Journal.
