Отрывок из книги
We often think about love but very rarely dare to talk about it. We dream to meet love but we almost never consciously go for it.

In the book, while contemplating on love one can find excerpts from famous literary works and illustrated schemes of certain psychological laws of love relationships. Thus, the author invites the reader to his own thoughts about love, armed with graceful metaphors and initial logical links.
