“There is always some madness in love, but there is also always some reason in madness”

Friedrich Nietzsche

Simplified Meaning:

Love often makes people do things that seem irrational or crazy, but there is usually a deeper, sensible reason behind those actions. For example, someone might move to a different country to be with the person they love, which might seem like a wild decision. However, the reason behind this “madness” is their desire to be close to someone who makes them happy. While love can lead to unpredictable behavior, it's driven by the genuine emotional need to connect and bond with another person. Even when actions seem unreasonable on the surface, they often have logical motivations rooted in the heart's intentions. So, people in love might seem like they're acting foolishly, yet they're guided by their feelings and a sense of purpose.
