About This Quote

The world has become a dangerous place to live in, with the rise of war, crime and terrorism. People wish to protect themselves and their loved ones from the outside world. They wish to create a place that is safe and full of mystery and wonderment. When people put up walls and refuse to let anyone in, they are doing the same thing that the people who build castles did: They are creating a safe haven for themselves, away from the rest of the world.

Walls can keep people out, but they can’t keep love in. Love is always there, no matter what happens.
