Plato
  • Love is the joy of the good, the wonder of the wise, the amazement of the Gods.

  • Love is a serious mental disease.

  • To love rightly is to love what is orderly and beautiful in an educated and disciplined way.

  • No one is a friend to his friend who does not love in return.

  • Those who intend on becoming great should love neither themselves nor their own things, but only what is just, whether it happens to be done by themselves or others.
