And I decided I'd rather love too much than not at all.

About This Quote

I decided that I would rather love too much than not at all. When I first heard this quote, I thought it was a really depressing line. It didn’t seem to have any hope or happiness in it. Upon further examination, however, I realized that love is the most powerful force in the world and without it we are nothing.

Love is what can make a bad day better and a terrible person into a good person. Love is what makes us want to be there for our friends when they need us most. Love is what makes us want to do things for people who don’t deserve it.

The world would be a much worse place without love and longing for it.
