Atmosphere Quote by Allan Bloom
“The de-eroticization of the world, a companion to its disenchantment ... seems to result from a combination of causes our democratic regime and its tendencies toward leveling and self-protection, a reductionist-materialist science that inevitably interprets eros as sex, and the atmosphere generated by "the death of God" and of the subordinate god, Eros.”
![“Eros remains largely egocentric...it is a longing for union with an object which will fulfil the promise of self-completion…[Agape] is theocentric and selfless. It can flow through us, but it is not 'ours.' We only love, according to 1 John 4.19 'because he first loved us.” quote by Andrew Vincent](https://sms4smile.com/quotes/img-quotes/cb8/andrew-vincent-194572_agape_eros-remains-largely-egocentric-it-is-a_2773834.jpg)
