en Perhaps it will seem to you that the sunshine is brighter and that everything has a new charm. At least, I believe this is always the result of a deep love, and it is a beautiful thing. And I believe people who think love prevents one from thinking clearly are wrong; for then one thinks very clearly and is more active than before. And love is something eternal--the aspect may change, but not the essence. There is the same difference in a person before and after he is in love as there is in an unlighted lamp and one that is burning.

en Have We not made the earth an even expanse? / And the mountains as projections (thereon)? / And We created you in pairs, / And We made your sleep to be rest (to you), / And We made the night to be a covering, / And We made the day for seeking livelihood. ~2.
