About This Quote

When you are hungry for love or have never been full of love, or have never known what it is to be full of love, then this quote is very appropriate. People who are hungry for love are desperate for it. They want someone to fill their hearts with this amazing feeling. They want it so badly that they can feel numb when they don't get it. For some, the lack of love leads them to alcoholism or other addictions which are self-destructive because they are trying to fill the void of the craving in their hearts.
