Paraphrasing Stendhal when he talks about love, is it too radical to say that without passion we lose the most beautiful part of life?

Romantic literature reflects people's passions. It is true that certain passions represent intense emotions that make us feel alive. However, as we’ve mentioned, some passions can make life bitter. When talking about emotions and passions, we enter into complexity. Simple answers don't match reality. Often, the answer is yes for some passions and no for others. The challenge lies in knowing how to distinguish between them and understanding what the appropriate behavior is in each case. This has to do with emotional intelligence.
