Quote by Oscar Wilde

They spoil every romance by trying to make it last forever.

They spoil every romance by trying to make it last forever.

Summary

This quote suggests that attempting to make every romance last forever can ruin the essence and magic of it. It implies that putting pressure on a relationship to be indefinitely lasting often leads to stifling or forcing it into a mold that may not be natural or sustainable. Instead, this quote advocates for embracing the temporary nature of a romantic connection, allowing it to flourish in its own unique way without the burden of trying to make it eternal.

That which is before the mind is the present. And that which is going to be before the mind is the future. Past is that which is no longer before you. Future is that which is not yet before you. And present is that which is before you and is slipping out of your sight. Soon it will be past....
