15 Romantic Quotes From Famous People That Reveal What True Love Is All About
The word “love” includes a number of similar yet distinct meanings depending on the specific context.
For instance, in Greek, two different kinds of love are expressed by either saying agape or eros. Talking about Greece and their idea of love, we cannot go without mentioning what the notable philosopher Plato once stated: “At the touch of love, everyone becomes a poet.”
And although that was said thousands of years ago it is still valid today. When we are in love we all change and become better, happier and more romantic. Because true love goes along with almost magical power no other feeling in this world could produce.
And if you don’t quite trust these words because you have not found the one yet and you’ve never known true love down below you can read 15 romantic quotes from famous people that reveal what this feeling is all about:
