Bandages Quote by Ralph Waldo Emerson

“We say love is blind, and the figure of Cupid is drawn with a bandage around his eyes. Blind - yes, because he does not see what he does not like; but the sharpest-sighted hunter in the universe is Love for finding what he seeks, and only that.” quote by Ralph Waldo Emerson — Download Open image
