"Falling in love consists merely in uncorking the imagination and bottling the common sense"

- Helen Rowland

About this Quote

In this quote by Helen Rowland, she magnificently catches the essence of falling in love. She recommends that this process is all about welcoming the endless possibilities that the imagination holds, while simultaneously reducing the usefulness of good sense. By "uncorking the imagination," she indicates that love permits us to let go of our logical reasoning and inhibitions, permitting our minds to skyrocket freely. On the other hand, "bottling the common sense" advises us that love frequently defies rationality, encouraging us to quelch our useful thoughts and factors to consider. This quote highlights how love can be a turbulent, yet thrilling experience that needs a certain level of surrender and whimsicality.
