"If one wants another only for some self-satisfaction, usually in the form of sensual pleasure, that wrong desire takes the form of lust rather than love"

This quote by Mortimer Adler recommends that if somebody desires another person solely for their own pleasure or complete satisfaction, especially in a sexual way, it is not love however rather lust. This can be translated as a warning versus misinterpreting desire for authentic love or confusing one's own desires for love. True love, according to this quote, involves a generous and real concern for the other individual, instead of a concentrate on satisfying one's own desires.
