About this Quote

This quote by Oliver Wendell Holmes talks to the concept that love is frequently best shared in the golden hrs, when the day is relaxing and the evening is starting. It recommends that love is a lot more comfortable in the shadows, far from the harsh day. This might be taken an allegory for exactly how love is typically kept hidden, or not revealed openly. It might also be taken a pointer to take some time to value the charm of love, and also to share it in a way that is comfortable as well as significant. Love is typically best shared in the golden hrs, when the day is relaxing and the evening is starting, and it remains in these minutes that we can absolutely value the appeal of love.
