Love is blind. Audio


Meaning and origin

The proverb "love is blind" means that when someone is in love, they are unable to see the faults or imperfections of the person they love. This can lead to overlooking red flags or ignoring negative qualities in the person.

The origin of this proverb can be traced back to the works of the ancient Roman poet Virgil, who wrote in his Eclogues: "Amor omnia vincit" which translates to "Love conquers all." This idea of love being all-powerful and blinding to faults has been a common theme in literature and culture throughout history. The proverb as we know it today likely evolved over time to convey the idea that love can make people overlook flaws or make poor decisions.
