About This Quote
If you love someone, you must be prepared to set them free. It is not enough to say “I love you”; it is equally important to mean what you say when you say it. When you are in love, it is no longer enough to follow your heart. The heart can lead you astray when it comes to matters of love. You need the mind to guide the heart when it comes to matters of love.
