What Is Love? I have met in the streets a very poor young man who was in love. His hat was old, his coat worn, the water passed through his shoes and the stars through his soul

About This Quote

"What is love?" This is a serious question. One that we've all asked ourselves at some point or another. The answer, of course, is the only thing we know and love and we think we understand. But, let's see what all the experts have to say: "Love is that condition in which the happiness of another person is essential to your own." "Love is that condition in which your happiness is essential to another person's." "Love is that condition in which you feel safe enough to be yourself." "Love is that condition in which you feel secure enough to be who you are." "Love is a force so powerful, so mysterious, so unpredictable, so transcendent, so utterly beyond your control, so divinely beautiful and yet fragile enough to shatter at a moment's notice." "Love is a condition so profound it defies description.

It's a force so strong it can move mountains. It just takes one person with pure intentions to pull it out of the ether and into reality." "Only love can break through walls of hatred and bring about world peace." "Only love can break down the bars of racism and injustice and usher in true equality for all people." I agree with the last quote because when people love one another they never want to see anyone else be unhappy even if it means losing their lives.The quote above has a magical touch because it shows how something as simple as love can make a difference in our lives."
