The "born for love" bench

.

B is for bench in Botanical Gardens of Jerusalem.
You can enlarge the photo once or twice to read to whom it is dedicated.

The bench proclaims

"We are all born for love.  It is the principle of existence, and its only end."
--Benjamin Disraeli

  7. We should each be remembered for such a wonderful characteristic that we lavished on another. May his memory, and the bench, always be for a blessing.

  9. That's is a cool quote on that bench. Disraeli understood life. Too bad not everyone agrees with him.
