Quote by Lucius Annaeus Seneca

If you wished to be loved, love.

If you wished to be loved, love.

Summary

This quote emphasizes the idea that if one desires to receive love from others, they should actively engage in loving others. It suggests that love is a reciprocal emotion, and by offering love to others, we invite the opportunity for love to be returned. Rather than waiting for love to come our way, the quote encourages us to take the initiative and be the catalyst for love in our relationships and interactions. In other words, if we want to experience love, we must first give it.
