"Pure love and suspicion cannot dwell together: at the door where the latter enters, the former makes its exit"

- Alexandre Dumas

About this Quote

This quote by Alexandre Dumas speaks to the idea that love and suspicion are incompatible. Love is a sensation of trust and affection, while suspicion is a feeling of doubt and mistrust. The two emotions can not exist side-by-side in the exact same space. When suspicion gets in a relationship, it presses out love. This is because suspicion is rooted in doubt and skepticism, which are the antithesis of love. When one partner begins to question the other, it can lead to a breakdown in interaction and trust, which can ultimately lead to the end of the relationship. This quote acts as a reminder that relationships need trust and interaction in order to flourish, and that suspicion can be a damaging force. It is essential to be knowledgeable about the power of suspicion and to be conscious of how it can affect a relationship.
