Hume Blog3

"If you tell me, that any person is in love, i easily understand your meaning, and form a just conception of his situation; but never can mistake that conception for the real disorders and agitations of the passion."

Hume says that he can understand the difference between actually be in love, which he calls a disorder, and actually having passions which is really being in love. I understand where he is coming from because he says if anyone is in love, he can easily separate from the person that has the passion. That is like someone that is saying Im in love with graham crackers, and another person who has the passion for graham crackers, who loves the taste, the look, and the basically the food.
