Affectionate or passionate devotion to another being. The Greeks often distinguished fondness or friendship (philis), erotic love (eros), and selfless love (agape).
Plato and Aristotle both hold that love is ultimately the desire of the imperfect for the perfect, whereas in Christianity love arises from the concern of the perfect (God) for the imperfect (human beings). St Augustine defines virtue as ordo amoris (“the order of love”), which occurs when the love of God replaces the love of self. For St Thomas Aquinas, natural love concerns the passions and will, whereas supernatural love is natural love to which has been added habitual unselfishness.
