About This Quote
It is true that we may love someone and never know it. It is also true that we may stop fighting and accept defeat. For many people, there is a time in their lives when they know that they love someone but they don’t fight for them. They accept defeat and move on with their lives.
The fact that we do not fight for the things we love does not mean that we do not care about them. Love simply comes later in life and is often accompanied by a sense of loss.
