Man cannot live without love. He remains a being that is incomprehensible for himself, his life is senseless, if love is not revealed to him, if he does not encounter love, if he does not experience it and make it his own, if he does not participate intimately in it.
Pope John Paul II, J. Michael Miller (1998). “The Post-synodal Apostolic Exhortations of John Paul II”, p.163, Our Sunday Visitor Publishing
