Quote by Aphra Behn

Love ceases to be a pleasure, when it ceases to be a secret.

Love ceases to be a pleasure, when it ceases to be a secret.

Summary

This quote suggests that love loses its charm and excitement when it no longer remains hidden or secret. The notion of love being concealed adds a sense of mystery and thrill to the experience, making it enjoyable. Once love becomes known to others, it can potentially lose its allure and become less appealing. The quote implies that the secretive nature of love contributes to its pleasure, and once that secrecy is lost, so is the pleasure associated with it.
