About This Quote

Shakespeare once said that love is “two souls and one body.” In other words, love is a state of being with two distinct parts. “Two souls” refers to the part of you that is separate from your body. It includes your mind, emotions, and will. If you consider the definition of soul to be something that goes beyond the physical body, then “two souls” fits this definition perfectly.

So does “one flesh,” which refers to the physical aspect of love. The other aspect of love is “friendship,” which describes the part of love that is shared between two people. We all know how much friendship matters to us, so it makes sense that friendship would be part of love. For Shakespeare, there was no distinction between the two aspects of love. He considered them inseparable.
