3 quotes from In Praise of Love

  • "Love is an event that reconfigures the world, making it visible anew and creating a shared space for two to exist beyond individual solitude."
  • "True love is an act of fidelity to that which has not yet been accomplished, a leap into the unknown future of what love can become."
  • "The experience of being in love is a challenge to the reigning structures of sentiments and the very nature of existence, inviting us towards an infinite potential of life and truth."

Author : Alain Badiou

The book is written by Alain Badiou, an influential left-wing intellectual, writer and philosopher. His theorized analysis of the election of the previous French president, The Meaning of Sarkozy, became a best-selling book of political philosophy. Badiou maintains that philosophy has four conditions, science, art, politics, and love. Among these conditions, love occupies an important place.
