How does love connect to philosophy? How can it lead to human happiness? <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The ancient Greek philosopher Plato addresses these questions and more in his <em>Symposium<\/em>, a work which claims that passionate desire, rather than cold and detached analysis, drives philosophy. The <em>Symposium<\/em> also provides insight into Plato\u2019s views on happiness, education, and reproduction.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The following <em>Symposium<\/em> quotes by Plato highlight some of the key ideas: <\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\"><p><strong><em>\u201cLove is of something, and that which love desires is not that which love is or has; for no man desires that which he is or has. And love is of the beautiful, and therefore has not the beautiful. And the beautiful is the good, and therefore, in wanting and desiring the beautiful, love also wants and desires the good.\u201d<\/em><\/strong><\/p><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<p>According to Diotima, people love what they don\u2019t have: Loving an object means desiring it, and nobody would desire something they already have. If someone says they love something they have, it actually means they desire to <em>continue<\/em> having it.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\"><p><strong><em>\u201cThe truth about eros is terrifying.\u201d<\/em><\/strong><\/p><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<p>According to Diotima, Eros is not <em>beloved<\/em>, but rather is a <em>lover<\/em>\u2014one that desires and seeks out beautiful things. Instead of a soft, youthful, and beautiful god, <strong>Eros is an old, tough, and hardened spirit.<\/strong> He acts as a messenger between the humans and gods, delivering human prayers and offerings to the gods and divine instructions or blessings to humans. Diotima outlines four things that Eros is not:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\"><li><strong>Eros is not beautiful: <\/strong>Eros desires beauty, and people desire what they don\u2019t have. Therefore, Eros isn\u2019t beautiful.&nbsp;<\/li><li><strong>Eros is not good: <\/strong>All good things are beautiful\u2014that\u2019s why they\u2019re attractive. Since Eros desires beauty, it follows that he desires good as well and therefore is not good himself.&nbsp;<\/li><li><strong>Eros is not wise: <\/strong>Wisdom is a good and beautiful quality, so Eros must desire it\u2014and, therefore, lacks it.&nbsp;<\/li><li><strong>Eros is not a god: <\/strong>Gods are perfect beings that lack nothing\u2014since Eros lacks beauty, goodness, and wisdom, it follows that he isn\u2019t a god.&nbsp;<\/li><\/ol>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\"><p><strong><em>\u201cLove&#8217; is the name for our pursuit of wholeness, for our desire to be complete.\u201d<\/em><\/strong><\/p><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<p>Aristophanes tells a wild story proposing that love allows a person to complete themselves: Humans used to be <em>two<\/em> people in one, fused back to back. However, they became arrogant, and the gods split them in half as a punishment. Now, love and sex are human attempts to return to that previous combined, \u201cwhole\u201d state. From this story, Aristophanes draws three main conclusions:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\"><li><strong>People have \u201csoulmates.\u201d <\/strong>Aristophanes suggests that everyone still has their other half in the world somewhere, and they are perfect for each other.&nbsp;<\/li><li><strong>Love is the desire to become whole.<\/strong> What people experience as love is actually just their desire to become whole again. This is why soulmates that find each other will stay together for their entire lives\u2014it\u2019s as close they can get to being whole again.&nbsp;<\/li><li><strong>Homosexuality<\/strong> (among men in particular) <strong>is natural and moral. <\/strong>Aristophanes claims that some of the dual-humans were pairs of two women or two men\u2014and so their love results from the same divine \u201csplit\u201d that created heterosexuality. In addition, Aristophanes suggests that homosexual men are <em>more<\/em> courageous and manly\u2014and therefore more moral\u2014than heterosexual men because they\u2019re attracted to those traits in <em>others<\/em> as well.<\/li><\/ol>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Are you looking for Symposium Plato&#8217;s quotes?
