"Love, all alike, no season knows, nor clime, nor hours, days, months, which are the rags of time"
- John Donne
About this Quote
This quote by John Donne speaks to the timelessness of love. He is saying that love is not bound by the restraints of time, such as the seasons, environments, hours, days, and months. These are all temporal markers that are short lived and ever-changing, but love remains constant. Love is not affected by the changing of the seasons, the different climates all over the world, or the passing of time. It is an effective feeling that is not bound by the real world. Love is a universal feeling that transcends time and area. It is a powerful force that can bring individuals together and develop lasting bonds. Love is a timeless emotion that will always belong of our lives.
