On why?

So easy to be civil.

So difficult to love.

my two cents ( or, as Eric says, 3 cents, adjusted for inflation)

"Civil" is self-preservation - a socailly acceptable and often exoected attitutde. When we are civil, we strengthen our sense of belonging in society.

Love is self-sacrificing - a socially uncommon and uncomfortable attitude. When we demonstrate love we often damage our sense of belonging in society.
