About This Quote

To say that love is a double-edged sword is a way of saying that it can have both positive and negative effects. The image of a double-edge sword is a common one in many cultures. The idea comes from the ancient Greeks, who believed that one would not be able to use a sword without cutting his own hand off. In the same way, love cannot be used without hurting those you love. Love can bind two people together as one unit, but it can also cause their separation. This quote from the movie "A Walk To Remember" shows how pain can cause people to lose each other.
