Love Quote by Anonymous

“Everything we seek so enthusiastically before we reach adulthood— love, work, faith— turns into a burden too heavy to bear. There is only one way to escape this: love. To love is to transform slavery into freedom. But right now, I can’t love. I just feel hate.” quote by Anonymous
