Quote by Helen Rowland

Falling in love consists merely in uncorking the imagination and bottling the common sense.

Falling in love consists merely in uncorking the imagination

Summary

This quote suggests that love is a transformative experience that defies rationality. When one falls in love, their imagination is set free, allowing them to see a broader range of possibilities and potential within the relationship. In the process, however, common sense and practicality often take a backseat. It implies that love is an emotional state that can lead people to make irrational decisions or view the world through rose-colored glasses, prioritizing the feelings and passion associated with love over logical thinking.
