"And therefore is winged Cupid painted blind.

Nor hath Love’s mind of any judgment taste—

Wings and no eyes figure unheedy haste.

And therefore is Love said to be a child,

Because in choice he is so oft beguiled.

As waggish boys in game themselves forswear,

So the boy Love is perjured everywhere.

For ere Demetrius looked on Hermia’s eyne," (Act 1 scene 1)

Here is a perfect example of Helena's scorn for love. She laments Cupid's lack of judgment for matching Hermia with Demetrius.
