About This Quote

The word "love" has taken on a whole new meaning in this quote. The author was questioning many of the assumptions that people make about love. People assume that love is the greatest feeling in the world, but what if it's not? What if it's like lashing out at someone else for your own selfish reasons? It sounds like the author is speaking about the wrong kind of love here.
