Plato's Symposium

Plato's Symposium remains the deepest ancient meditation on love's varieties: eros rising from desire for beauty toward desire for truth, philia as the friendship between equals, agape as the love that wants only the other's good—and the dialogue itself shows that love cannot be reduced to a single definition, only approached from many angles and voices.
