On Love - Love without trust is the love you give a dog. You may call that cute little mutt a member of the family but you don't let him in the kitchen when there's a roast on the table.

About This Quote

Love without trust is the love you give a dog. You may call that cute little mutt a member of the family but you don't let him in the kitchen when there's a roast on the table. In this quote, Tom Robbins shows that love is based on trust and defies logic. You would never let a dog in the kitchen when there's food to be prepared, so why would you allow a romantic partner into your personal life? This quote serves as a reminder that love isn't something you can just decide to feel. It cannot be manufactured or forced.
