WISE WORDS: SOLOVYOV ON LOVE

"The meaning and worth of love as a feeling is that it really forces us, with all our being, to acknowledge for another the same absolute significance which, because of the power of egoism, we are conscious of only in our own selves. Love is important, not only as one of our feelings but as the transfer of all our interest in life from ourselves to another, as the shifting of the very center of our lives."

- Vladimir Solovyov, "The Meaning of Love."
