About This Quote
Those whom we most love are often the most alien to us. What this means is that someone who really loves you is not your friend; they are your lover. They are not like you in any way, shape or form. What makes them special is that they love you enough to see you for all of your faults and shortcomings.
They don’t care about your flaws, but they love you anyway. And that is what makes them alien.
