There is nothing more important in life than love.

Meaning of the quote

Love is the most important thing in life. It's more important than money, fame, or anything else. Love makes us feel happy, connected, and cared for. Without love, life would be empty and meaningless. Barbra Streisand, a famous American actress, knows this and that's why she said that love is the most important thing.
