Love one another, but make not a bond of love: let it rather be a moving sea between the shores of your souls.
Keep love in your heart. A life without it is like a sunless garden when the flowers are dead.
OW Oscar WildePlaywright & poet · 1854–1900What this quote means
A life without love goes grey and lifeless, like a garden with no sun. Keep affection alive and the whole of life stays in color.
