The only bit I have pictured in any detail is the music (maybe 'The Book of Love' by the Magnetic Fields. Or Johnny Cash's 'It Ain't Me, Babe'). It doesn't matter if the selection is slow or fast, but couples shouldn't scramble to select it. If you have ever gone dancing or on a road trip or had a romantic bout of serenaded sex on a winter night, you should have a few to pick from. If not, you probably shouldn't be getting married.

About This Quote

If a person has never been in love, then they have no idea what love is. Love is a very complicated concept that can be hard to define or even comprehend. When you are young, you only know the basics of what love is. For example, if someone makes you feel loved and cared for, then it is obvious that you like them.

However, as you grow older and start to experiment with your feelings, you will soon realize that love can be expressed in different ways. (i.e. having sex with someone of the opposite gender) After all, some people find emotionless sex to be an enjoyable experience.

The fact is that not everyone has experienced the full spectrum of emotions related to love. I've never felt like someone was truly loving me or would do anything for me (without expecting something in return). I've also never experienced true passion for anyone else.

This quote speaks about the importance of experiencing love first hand instead of just reading about it or hearing about it through stories or songs. You just can’t know what love is until you have experienced it first hand.
