TOP DEFINITION
A Swahili proverb (attributed to Tanzania/Kenya) meaning if you truly love someone, you love everything about them. Superficial attraction (loving just the outside of the 'vase') isn't real love unless you also care for the inside (their inner qualities).
"He fell for her looks but couldn't stand her personality – clearly he missed the point that one who loves the vase must love also what's inside."
