Jealousy is a disease, love is a healthy condition. The immature mind often confuses one for the other, or assumes the greater the love, the greater the jealousy. In fact they are almost incompatible; both at once produce unbearable turmoil.

 
Robert A. Heinlein
 

Jealousy is all the fun you think they had.

 
Erica Jong
 

Jealousy does not wait for reasons.

 
Mohandas Karamchand (Mahatma) Gandhi
 

Jealousy, the jaundice of the soul.

 
John Dryden
 

This is the worst of love, this unmeant mystification — someone smiling and going out without saying where, or a letter arriving, being read in your presence, put away, not explained, or: "No, alas, I can't to-night" on the telephone — that, one person having set up without knowing, the other cannot undo without the where? who? why? that brings them both down a peg. Jealousy is no more than feeling alone against smiling enemies.
