I selected this quote because I am always impressed by how well King can put into words concepts that many of us have trouble even grasping. I believe one of the reasons that relationships can be tough and require work is because men and women think and view the world very differently. Both opinions are unique and good in their own way however it does sometimes make certain aspects of life more challenging. Love is an intense emotion and King does an excellent job of explaining how love may be viewed differently by men than women. King has the ability to take concepts that seem complex and break them down so he can expalin them on a fundamental level, making them simpler to understand. Some may think relationships are crazy and complicated however if one admits and accepts that women and men just think differently then they could better understand and handle their own relationships. I selected the photo below because it demonstrates the bond between two people in a loving relationship, despite their different understandings of love described above by King.
