Nothing lasting is born or grows without love. Sometimes it happens that the greatness and grandeur of our projects can make us forget this, and fools us into thinking that we can be the sole authors of our lives, of our wealth, our well-being, our happiness. Yet, ultimately, life always brings us back to one reality: without love, we are nothing.
