" ...the ultimate experience of love is a realization that beneath the illusion of two-ness dwell identity: "each is both." This realization can expand into a discovery that beneath the multitudinous individualities of the whole surrounding universe--human, animal, vegetable, even mineral--dwells identity; whereupon the love experience becomes cosmic, and the beloved who first opened the vision is magnified as the mirror of creation. "

― Joseph Campbell , The Hero With a Thousand Faces
