About this Quote

This quote by Percy Bysshe Shelley speaks with the power of love to transform the mundane into something lovely. It recommends that when we are in love, even the most common of activities can end up being special. This might be something as simple as making supper together, or taking a walk in the park. Love has the power to make the familiar remarkable, and to bring happiness and charm to everyday life.
