    "Being deeply loved by someone gives you strength, while loving someone deeply gives you courage." Elucidate this quote with reference to the current story, explaining the value of love, which provides strength and courage?                   

    Answer:

                      It is certainly true that if someone loves you deeply, you achieve strength and if you love someone, you get courage. Love is very powerful. Love knows no species, boundaries or language, yet it does wonders. In the current story, the dog is an epitome of love. He loves his master immensely. The sight of Charles Hooper excites the dog to such an extent that we find him quivering. He remains sitting beside Hooper. He cannot talk to him nor can he take his silence and misery. The dog manages to enable him to take steps towards recovery. Finally, he recovers and resumes his work. But the dog passes away, leaving alone Hooper forever. Had he not been there, Hooper's recovery was impossible.
