Tirukkural-On Virtue-On Love Or Affection-Kural 80
Love Affection

Enputhoal poartha udambu.
Love is the quintessence of life; without it,
A
man
is
but
a
frame
of
bones
covered
with
skin.
Valluvar
emphasises
again
in
this
Kural
the
fact
that
life
consists
not
only
of
the
physical
activities
of
the
body,
but
of
the
basic
reality
of
love.
If
the
basic
core
of
life,
which
is
love,
is
missing
there
is
nothing
left
in
life
but
a
skin-covered
skeleton.
