4. What about people? Do we love others because we like their qualities, whether
physical or mental? Or is it possible to love someone “for themselves alone”?
Are some people ‘more lovable’ than others? Discuss this question in pairs
or in groups, considering points like the following.
(i) a parent or caregiver’s love for a newborn baby, for a mentally or
physically challenged child, for a clever child or a prodigy
(ii) the public’s love for a film star, a sportsperson, a politician, or a social
worker
(iii) your love for a friend, or brother or sister
(iv) your love for a pet, and the pet’s love for you.
