About this Quote

This quote by Lord Byron speaks with the complexity of relationships and the power of love. It suggests that often we would rather be tricked by those we enjoy than to be undeceived. This could be due to the fact that being tricked by someone we enjoy can offer us with a sense of convenience and security, even if it is incorrect. We may be more happy to accept a lie than to deal with the fact, as the fact can be uncomfortable and challenging to accept. On the other hand, being undeceived by somebody we love can be much more painful, as it can cause feelings of betrayal and skepticism. Ultimately, this quote highlights the power of love and how it can make us vulnerable to deceptiveness, even if it is not in our best interest.
