wise quotes about love

Love is a universal feeling and, although we all experience it, it is not always easy to put it into words. In fact, sometimes we can feel that this emotion surpasses us, that it is much bigger than us.

Love has inspired many poems and novels, and has even been taken to the laboratory, to the point that today we know that when we are in love, some areas of our brain are deactivated, especially those related to negative emotions, planning, criticality, the evaluation of reliability and fear. In other words: love is really blind and triggers radical changes in our brain.

That is why many philosophers compared love with a form of transient madness in which we dare to do things that in another state we would not even have taken into consideration. These intelligent quotes about love of great philosophers, writers and psychologists, will give us a new and wider perspective on this incredible feeling.
