“Love, if I think right, is a sickness of thought that takes place between two persons of different sex when they are in close proximity and open to each other.

A lover so burns and is so enraptured that he thinks of nothing else; he takes no account of bearing fruit, but strives only for delight.”
― Guillaume de Lorris, The Romance of the Rose
