About This Quote

If you are the land, then I am the sea. I don't need you and you don't need me is a quote by Saladin, the Muslim warrior who defeated Richard the Lionheart at the Battle of Hattin. It is an example of how boundaries are not necessary to love someone. If you are in love with someone who lives far away, you can express your love for them without them needing to know how you feel. Just think of how much more beautiful it would be if even with distance between you, you still loved them as much as if they were next door.
