In jealousy there is more of self-love than love.

Summary

This quote suggests that jealousy is rooted more in selfishness and self-centeredness rather than genuine love for another person. It implies that when someone feels jealous, they are driven by a strong desire to possess or be superior to someone, rather than esteeming and cherishing them. The focus of jealousy lies on personal ego and insecurities, overshadowing true feelings of love and care for others.
