"Friendship always benefits; love sometimes injures"

- Seneca

About this Quote

This quote by Seneca talks to the power of friendship and the prospective risks of love. Relationship is a relationship that is equally advantageous, supplying friendship, assistance, and understanding. Love, on the other hand, can be a riskier venture. While love can bring fantastic happiness and fulfillment, it can likewise bring pain and distress. Seneca is cautioning us to be conscious of the threats of love, while still recognizing the worth of friendship. He is reminding us that friendship is a safe and trusted source of convenience and delight, while love can be unforeseeable and potentially damaging. Ultimately, Seneca is encouraging us to be conscious of our relationships and to focus on friendship over love.
