"The Greeks have a special word for parental love—agape. Plato believed agape to be a divine love. He defined it as unconditional, self-sacrificing, and thoughtful. He also considered it an active love. To Plato, agape was more than a feeling. It was a tangible choice demonstrated with loving behavior. "
How about that for an unexpected gem?
