History of Love Conquers All Day

Love is a feeling that is perhaps as old as humans themselves. It is believed to be an uplifting feeling that brings positive effects on our mental and emotional well-being. There are six different forms of love that are identified by Greek philosophers including familial love, friendly love, romantic love, self-love, formal love, and divine love. Today, love also exists as unrequited love, empty love, companion love, full love, passionate love, self-love, and love in a particular way. Every culture has its own unique definitions of love, and some also celebrate love as part of religion and spirituality. It is also a popular subject of art, literature, poetry, film, and music.

The famous expression ‘love conquers all' is considered belonging to the Roman poet Virgil. These lines are found in Virgil's "Eclogues" and were originally written in Latin. When translated into English, “Amor vincit omnia, et nos cedamus amori” means “Love conquers all things, so we too will yield to love”. That quote suggests that there is no force in the world that cannot be overcome by love.

This phrase is also mentioned in religious scriptures such as the Bible. It preaches that God loves all people and that kind people are rewarded with love and joy. The Bible says that vices like hatred, manipulation, and deception are not fought with weapons, but with love. Although the phrase "love conquers all" does not have in the Bible, there are many sentences with a similar sentiment.
