History of Love Conquers All Day
Love is an emotion that is probably as old as humans themselves. It is described as a sublime feeling that positively affects our mental and emotional well-being. The Greek philosophers identified six different forms of love: familial love, friendly love, romantic love, self-love, guest love, and divine love. Today, love also exists as unrequited love, empty love, companionate love, consummate love, infatuated love, self-love, and courtly love. Every culture has its own unique definitions of love and some also celebrate love as a part of religion and spirituality. It is also a common subject of art, literature, poetry, movies, and music.
The famous expression, ‘love conquers all,’ is credited to the Roman poet Virgil. These lines are found in Virgil’s “Eclogues” and were originally written in Latin. When translated to English, “Amor vincit omnia, et nos cedamus amori” means “Love conquers all things, so we too shall yield to love.” The expression suggests that there is no force in the world that cannot be overcome by love.
The phrase also finds a mention in religious scriptures like the Bible. It preaches that God loves everyone and those who are kind will be rewarded with love and joy. The Bible says that vices like hatred, manipulation, and deception are not fought with weapons, but love. Although the phrase “love conquers all” does not exist in the Bible, many verses preach a similar sentiment.
