Famous Quotes....

"it is better to have loved and lost, than to have never loved at all." William Shakespeare

Okay, so what if you have a person who has been married only a few days to the love of their life and that person dies and then their life spins out of control and they become suicidal as a result of losing the person that they had loved? or what if someone gets rejected by someone that they love and they become a rapist or a serial killer who targets women (or men) who fit the profile of that one that had rejected them?
it begs the question, is it really "..better to have loved and lost, than to have never loved at all"?
