Quote by Ursula K. Le Guin

Oh, never and forever aren't for mortals, love. But we won't be parted till I know it's right that we part.

Oh, never and forever aren't for mortals, love. But we won't

Summary

This quote reflects the uncertain and transient nature of love. While the concepts of "never" and "forever" may seem absolute, they are not applicable to human beings. The speaker recognizes that their love may not last forever, but they express a commitment to stay together until the time is right for them to part ways. It acknowledges the impermanence of relationships and implies a sense of realism and practicality in navigating the complexities of love.
