    Bell Hooks: Love as a Revolutionary Verb

    Bell Hooks: Love as a Revolutionary Verb 베스트 인용

    “

    Love is the will to extend one’s self for the purpose of nurturing one’s own or another’s spiritual growth. It is a disciplined practice, not a mysterious thing that happens to us, but a tool we can use to build a more just world.
