Summary

This quote, from Shakespeare's "A Midsummer Night's Dream," suggests that true love is not solely reliant on physical appearance. It implies that love is determined by the thoughts and emotions of an individual rather than what they see. By stating that Cupid, the symbol of love, is depicted as blindfolded, Shakespeare implies that love is blind, unconcerned with superficial qualities. Love transcends physicality and is instead driven by a deeper connection between souls.
