About This Quote
There is nothing wrong with being a puppet if love is the one pulling the strings. After all, we are all puppets in the hands of love. Without love, we would not mind being a puppet on a string. But when it comes to the puppet's plight, we become determined to be free from his or her grasp.
For example, when someone is there for you, you will do anything for them. You want to make them happy and you will try hard to make sure that they are never angry at you.
