About This Quote
People often equate marriage to love, but they are two different things. Marriage is a social institution that gives couples the opportunity to live together for the purpose of procreation. Love is an ideal thing that does not exist in real life. You can’t really love someone else until you’ve fallen in love with yourself. If you don’t love yourself, you will never be able to help others to love themselves, which means you will never be able to make them happy.
