“
There is apparently, here and there on earth, a kind of continuation of love where this greedy desire of two persons for each other has given way to a new craving and greed, a common higher thirst for an ideal that stands above [über] them: but who knows this love? who has experienced it? Its true name is friendship [FW 14].
