Understanding this quote
The quote compares love to the smallest possible form of shared life. In love, care and connection are not treated as possessions belonging to one person alone; they become something held and experienced together. “Minimal” suggests that even a single loving relationship can embody the basic idea of a common world, without claiming to represent a whole society.
