The Classical Greek philosopher Plato helped to lay the foundations of Western philosophy and science, but he also had a lot to say on the subject of love. Sure, he’s known for Platonic love, but this poetic reasoning of what it feels like to have a heart whisper back to yours is certainly not referring to simple friendship. If you’re lucky enough to be marrying your best friend, though, this quote from Plato should pop up in your wedding vows.
“Every heart sings a song, incomplete, until another heart whispers back. Those who wish to sing always find a song. At the touch of a lover, everyone becomes a poet.” ― Plato
