Is “love” significant?

[Ravenshire]

For Benny’s sake, I would define ‘significant’ as having lasting meaning or value (worthy for it’s own sake).

Then no. Since emotions are temporary states, they do not have lasting meaning or value.

I've got to argue against this because the long term affects of emotions can easily outlive the emotions themselves. I have loved many people, some as friends, some as family, some as lovers. I would not be the person I am today without those experiences in love, even though the emotion (for most of them) ended long ago.

Yes, Love is significant. Of course, so is hate, pride, joy, sorrow, empathy anger, compassion, happiness, etc... All the things we feel help to shape us, even if we don't feel them any longer.
