quomodo quemlibet amare potes, nisi te ipsem (ipsam) amas?
Dear Malia:
Quomodo: How
Potes: can you
amare: love
quemlibet: anyone (accusative)
Nisi: if don't
amas: you love
te ipsem: thyself
But in the order as I wrote before :)
Hope it helps,Flavio

Comment: "Thank you Flavio. Love Thyself or Flavio Ferri Benedetti is a wonderful mantra. I was considering the phrase for a tattoo but it is a bit long. Will sleep on it."
