About This Quote

When people love one another, they can be as tender as a newborn baby and as passionate as a newborn child. Yet, the very moment they fall out of love, bitterness and anger begins to take over. This quote brings to light how important it is for couples to know when to let go of each other and how important it is for them to understand that love is not something that can be forced or forced out of you.
