“There are so many sorts of love that one does not know where to seek a definition of it. The name of “love” is given boldly to a caprice of a few days’ duration; to a sentiment devoid of esteem; to a casual liaison; to the affections of a cicisbeo; to a frigid habit; to a romantic fantasy; to relish followed by prompt derelish: – yes, people give this name to a thousand chimeras.”
