“...and through [eudaimonia] we can see that Aristotle was keen enough to recognize the importance of love. Human beings are fundamentally social creatures that need other people to flourish, whether that be through friendship, romance, or family. To be deprived of this is to wander through our terrifyingly fleeting existence with the map of human experience incomplete. Our capacity as a species for everything—happiness, art, moral reasoning itself—is irrefutably scaffolded upon love shared with other people.”
