Quote by Jean de la Bruyere

Time makes friendship stronger, but love weaker


Time makes friendship stronger, but love weaker

Summary

This quote suggests that over time, friendships tend to become stronger and more solidified. This could be because as friends spend more time together, they understand and support each other better, creating a stronger bond. On the other hand, this quote implies that love can weaken over time as people may begin to drift apart or lose the intense feelings they once had for each other. Time might challenge and change the dynamics of a romantic relationship, potentially leading to a less intense or passionate connection.
