General sources
Context: To love Me for what I may give you is not loving Me at all. To sacrifice anything in My cause to gain something for yourself is like a blind man sacrificing his eyes for sight. I am the Divine Beloved worthy of being loved because I am Love. He who loves Me because of this will be blessed with unlimited sight and will see Me as I am.
“I love it, I love it, and who shall dare
To chide me for loving that old arm-chair?”
The old Arm-Chair, reported in Bartlett's Familiar Quotations, 10th ed. (1919).
“I want him to love me as much as I love him.”
