“Gravitation cannot be held responsible for people falling in love. How on earth can you explain in terms of chemistry and physics so important a biological phenomenon as first love? Put your hand on a stove for a minute and it seems like an hour. Sit with ”
— Jeff Bezos
Simplified Meaning:
Falling in love isn't something that science like physics or chemistry can explain. It goes beyond just the physical laws we know, like gravity, which pulls objects towards each other. Think of it this way: when you're in love, you might feel strange, wonderful emotions, but they aren't caused by the same things that make an apple fall from a tree. For example, if you put your hand on something hot, a minute feels painfully long. But, if you're sitting and talking happily with someone you love, hours can pass by without you even noticing. This shows that our feelings and experiences are driven by emotions and human connections, not just by physical forces or scientific rules. It reminds us that love is unique and can't be measured like other things in the world.
