" You say that love is nonsense....I tell you it is no such thing. For weeks and months it is a steady physical pain, an ache about the heart, never leaving one, by night or by day; a long strain on one's nerves like toothache or rheumatism, not intolerable at any one instant, but exhausting by its steady drain on the strength.

The telnet command is a utility to connect over TCP and defaults to port 25 23 (make a TCP connection to port 25 23 on remote computer/server). But if you specify a different port than 25 23, then what the telnet command do is opening a TCP connection on the specified port to the remote computer/server.
