Quote by Franz Kafka
Sensual love deceives one as to the nature of heavenly love it could not do so alone, but since it unconsciously has the element of heavenly love within it, it can do so.
Summary
This quote suggests that sensual love, or love driven by physical attraction and desire, can deceive individuals as it partially contains elements of heavenly love. The reference to heavenly love implies a higher, more pure form of love that transcends the physical realm. Because sensual love contains traces of this higher love, it has the power to deceive individuals into believing that it is equivalent to heavenly love alone. Essentially, the quote argues that while sensual love may misleadingly mimic heavenly love, they are not one and the same.
