So if "El amor se hace fuerte" means "love gets strong" then how do you say "Love makes one strong?" Gracias.

El amor te hace fuerte / el amor te fortalece.

Can you use Te in this sense to mean to make one strong? I say this because te is in familiar form like addressing a second person rather than making a general statement. - kenwilliams, Jan 24, 2011
Good question. Yes, you can use it, because in Spanish "makes one strong" and "makes you strong" is used interchangeably. I don't know if more so than in English, but it used that way. The literal exact translation is a bit more awkward: - Gekkosan, Jan 24, 2011
"El amor lo fortalece a uno" Just doesn't quite roll out of the tongue. - Gekkosan, Jan 24, 2011

But after the fire has burned out, you might be saying El amor te hace pobre.

It could also be : El amor hace a uno fuerte.
