Plato
“According to Greek mythology, humans were originally created with four arms, four legs and a head with two faces. Fearing their power, Zeus split them into two separate parts, condemning them to spend their lives in search of their other halves.”
Plato, The Symposium

Plato
“Love is the name for our pursuit of wholeness, for our desire to be complete.”
Plato, The Symposium

Plato
“And so, when a person meets the half that is his very own, whatever his orientation, whether it's to young men or not, then something wonderful happens: the two are struck from their senses by love, by a sense of belonging to one another, and by desire, and they don't want to be separated from one another, not even for a moment.”
Plato, The Symposium

Eric Idle
“Life doesn't make any sense, and we all pretend it does. Comedy's job is to point out that it doesn't make sense, and that it doesn't make much difference anyway.”
Eric Idle

Plato
“Love is simply the name for the desire and pursuit of the whole.”
Plato, The Symposium
