Love by its very nature is extravagant, but we poor human beings, so caught up in fear and worry, limit the very love we were created to bring into the world.

About This Quote

When you are in love, your feelings are extravagant. Yes, you may love the person more than anyone else, but when you are in love you are willing to make any sacrifice to make that person happy. You will do anything for them, even though you know that it may be in vain. This quote is about taking chances in life because when you take chances you are more likely to succeed. To love is to take risks and when you take risks it can lead to great success.
