What a test that is: more than devotion, admiration, passion. If you long and long for someone's company you love them

Iris Murdoch, the renowned British author and philosopher, was known for her complex and nuanced exploration of love and relationships in her works. In her novels, she often delved into the intricacies of human emotions and the various forms that love can take. One of the recurring themes in Murdoch's writing is the idea that true love goes beyond mere devotion, admiration, and passion. According to Murdoch, if one longs and longs for someone's company, then that is a true indication of love.

Murdoch believed that love is not just a fleeting emotion or a passing infatuation, but rather a deep and enduring connection that transcends physical attraction or romantic gestures. In her novel "The Bell," Murdoch explores the complexities of love through the character of Dora Greenfield, who finds herself torn between her husband Paul and her lover Toby. Dora's struggle to reconcile her feelings for both men highlights Murdoch's belief that love is not always straightforward or easy, but rather a test of one's true feelings and commitment.
