“... love given without free will or truthfulness wasn't love at all.”
“No one could ever truly be free as long as they loved, and life wasn't worth living without love. So freedom? Overrated.”
“Truth without love is brutality, and love without truth is hypocrisy.”
“Truth without love kills, but love without truth lies.”
“It was finally becoming clear to her that love wasn't about finding someone perfect to marry. Love was about seeing through to the truth of a person, and accepting all their shades of light and dark. Love was an ability.”
“Love without truth and honor is licentious in nature. Love without commitment is promiscuous and fleeting. Love without virtue and understanding is savage and selfish. Love without respect is short-lived. Love without these conditions is without God.”
