here and there...

"When a person meets with his other half, the actual half of himself, he is lost in an amazement of love and friendship and intimacy. The two don't want to spend any time apart from each other. These are the people who pass their whole lives together; yet they could not explain what they desire of one another. No one can think it is only sexual intercourse that they want, that this is the reason why they find such joy in each other's company. It appears to be something else which the soul evidently desires and cannot tell, and of which it has only a dark and doubtful presentiment." - A quotation apparently from Plato, in the book 'Solo' by Rana Dasgupta..
