The analysis by all Russel and Frege would be something like this:
the statement "love makes the world go around" is false, because in fact is "gravity that makes the world go around"

Wittgenstein would analyze the context of each word used, and acknowledge the ambiguity of language. Thus the statement can still be false if understood in physics context, but it can also be interpreted in social context as something like: "the human interactions in society are largely governed by love" which may or may not be true.

Love is the manifestation of the I-Thou
