Perhaps, she thought, that’s what love does. It’s not there to make you feel special. It’s to make you brave. It was like a ration pack in the desert, she thought, like a box of matches in a dark wood. Love and courage, thought Sophie–two words for the same thing. Katherine Rundell

This quote is one of the most well known quotes about love. The writer shows how love can be given to one for no reason and it can still make them brave. This is something we should all think about when we fall in love and realize that we need to be grateful and thankful for the love we receive and not only do things for the person we love but also for what they mean to us. Love is given to us to make us brave and strong and if we don't appreciate it then how will we ever look at life the same way again?
