Summary

This quote suggests that the concept of "love at first sight" is not real or enduring. It implies that upon closer examination or upon getting to know someone better ("second sight"), the initial sense of love or attraction tends to fade away. It implies that true love cannot be solely based on superficial appearances or initial infatuation, but requires a deeper understanding and connection with the person. Ultimately, the quote highlights the idea that true love requires more than just a fleeting first impression.
