About this Quote

This quote by Judith Viorst talks to the difference between lust and love. Lust is a physical destination that can be strong and powerful, but it is not always based upon a deep emotional connection. Lust can make us wish to be with somebody even when we have no desire to do anything together. Love, on the other hand, is based on a strong psychological connection and mutual respect. Love makes us wish to be with someone even when we have no desire to do anything together. Love is a much deeper and more meaningful connection than lust, and it is something that can last a life time.
