In the strange anomaly of my existence, feelings with me had never been of the heart, and my passions always were of the mind.

Edgar Allan Poe
About This Quote

Some people believe that passion is the centre of their life. They are always in love with their girlfriends or boyfriends, but they are not truly in love. They are just infatuated with another human being because it is easy to see that they are beautiful or that they have great style or that they can talk long hours about the things they care about. Passion is what you feel for someone, but true love comes from your heart.

When you fall in love with someone, you’ll truly know it. You’ll feel it down to your bones and you’ll be able to see it in their eyes. Your reckless behaviour will turn into thoughtful behaviour and you will be able to read each other better than ever before.

When you fall in love, you will know what true passion means, and this is how you will be able to write the greatest novel of all time.
