About This Quote
When you love you should not think you can direct the course of love, for love, if it finds you worthy, directs your course. If you truly love someone, you should not try to direct their feelings or actions towards you. Instead, you should let them have the power to choose who they want to be with. If they choose to be with you, great! If they don’t then that’s okay too because that means they are choosing to be happy.
