Matters of the heart were important, but people tended to put too much stock in the particular organ when, in retrospect, it was only tissue. It pumped blood and the body couldn’t live without it, sure, but it had no actual bearing on love. The soul was what made a person distinct–the part that lived on after death, how one being connected to another, and what bound essence. Kelly Moran
About This Quote

The quote says that matters of the heart were important but people actually put too much stock in the matter of the heart which is only tissue. The body cannot live without it but it has no bearing on love. The soul is what makes a person distinct and it lives on after death, how one being connects to another and what binds essence. This quote not only explains why love matters but also explains why you should never give up on love. The soul may be lost but love will always be there waiting for you to come back.
