In Praise of Love
Alain Badiou
“Love is a tenacious adventure. The adventurous side is necessary, but equally so is the need for tenacity. To give up at the first hurdle, the first serious disagreement, the first quarrel, is only to distort love. Real love is one that triumphs lastingly, sometimes painfully, over the hurdles erected by time, space and the world… Happiness in love is the proof that time can accommodate eternity.”French philosopher Alain Badiou on why we fall and stay in love – one of the truest and most beautiful things ever written about the inner workings of love.
