Love is like any other luxury. You have no right to it unless you can afford it.

Love is like any other luxury. You have no right to it unles

Summary

This quote suggests that love is seen as a luxury, similar to other indulgences in life. The underlying idea is that the experience of love should only be pursued or enjoyed if one has the means, capabilities, or resources to handle it. It implies that love should be limited to those who are emotionally, mentally, or financially capable of sustaining a healthy relationship. This perspective views love as a privilege rather than a universal right, intertwining it with the concept of affordability and eligibility.

On completely popular government: Its superiority in reference to present well-being rests upon two principles, of as universal truth and applicability as any general propositions which can be laid down respecting human affairs. The first is, that the rights and interests of every or any person are only secure from being disregarded, when the person interested is himself able, and habitually disposed, to stand up for them. The second is, that the general prosperity attains a greater height, and is more widely diffused, in proportion to the amount and variety of the personal energies enlisted in promoting it.
