Child, child, love while you can The voice and the eyes and the soul of a man; Never fear though it break your heart- Out of the wound new joy will start; Only love proudly and gladly and well, Though love be heaven or love be hell. Child, child, love while you may, For life is short as a happy day; Never fear the thing you feel- Only by love is life made real; Love, for the deadly sins are seven, Only through love will you enter heaven. Sara Teasdale
About This Quote

This quote from the song "Child, Child, Love" is a reminder that while love is a wonderful feeling that should be enjoyed while it lasts, it can also be a painful experience. It can cause you to lose your mental balance and make you lose your soul. It can make you do things that are against your principles and break your soul. It can make you do things that should not be done at all. Love should not make you lose your mind or soul.
