Comment:

A thought transfixed me: For the first time in my life I saw the truth as it is set into song by so many poets, proclaimed as the final wisdom by so many thinkers. The truth-that love is the ultimate and highest goal to which man can aspire. Then I grasped the meaning of the greatest secret that human poetry and human thought and belief have to impart: the salvation of man is through love and in love.

Great mix. For some reason it reminds me of a snippet from Ray Bradbury: "the sound truth makes being said..." (obviously i prefer my philosophy even liter than yours)
