"It's a mistake to confuse pity with love"

- Stanley Kubrick

About this Quote

This quote by Stanley Kubrick is a reminder that there is a difference between pity and love. Pity is an emotion that is frequently felt when someone is in a tight spot or is suffering. It is a feeling of grief or sympathy for another person's misfortune. Love, on the other hand, is a much deeper feeling. It is a strong sensation of affection and attachment for somebody else. It is a connection that is based on shared regard, understanding, and trust. Pity can be mistaken for love, however it is essential to remember that they are not the same. Pity is a temporary feeling, while love is an enduring bond. It is a mistake to puzzle the two, as they are not interchangeable.
