About This Quote

"Think not you can direct the course of love, for love, if it finds you worthy, directs your course. “ This quote is taken from an opera called "Romeo and Juliet" written by William Shakespeare. The idea that our lives are controlled by the people around us is one of the most common myths of the human experience. But, if we learn to understand our relationship with others, we can make more effective choices about how we love, and what we do with our lives.
