Do you want me to tell you something really subversive? Love is everything it's cracked up to be. That's why people are so cynical about it. It really is worth fighting for, being brave for, risking everything for. And the trouble is, if you don't risk anything, you risk even more. Erica Jong
About This Quote

The trouble is, if you don't risk anything, you risk even more. This quote by the late stage actress Viola Allen shows how much love is worth fighting for. Love can be difficult to find but it can be better when you give up everything for love. When you give up all your money and time just to be with someone you love, that's when it's worth it.
