I don't know what the Turkish text says, but the French one says 'between having everything and having nothing'. I reckon either the French or the English version should be corrected...

Judged by the French version:
'... having it all and having nothing'

I think that this should be:
Love is humiliating. It limits incertainty between everything and nothing. (I'm not an expert in English, but this is my opinion of this sentence)

Love is servility, slavish. There is uncertain limit between having everything and having nothing.

humiliating, Donna22? Where did you get that? In Turkish it's köpeklik = dog-ness. I understand that that means servility, sort of, but I think it's expressed perfectly with "a dog's life" in English. "Humiliating" is MUCH too strong.

I understand and I speak french, so I'd say:

the limit between the nothing and the all not having nothing or having something.

You may say that, but no English speaker would understand it. Anyhow, this translation was done from the Turkish.

Lilian, please put an end to this one - it's getting ridiculous.
