About This Quote

A series of small things brought together. This is a good point to keep in mind. Sometimes, when we fall in love with someone, all we want to do is find a way to be with that person. We have no idea that the person is not perfect or that our feelings are not reciprocated.

As a result, we give up on the relationship, believing that "great things" cannot be accomplished when people fall in love too quickly. In fact, great things are not done by impulse; they are built upon many small things brought together.
