Le désir de connaître mais aussi la troublante expérience de l'embarras et du tâtonnement confèrent à la réflexion philosophique sa dimension érotique. Pour les mêmes raisons, l'amour est philosophie : l'amoureux s'arrache à son propre point de vue pour porter sur lui-même et le monde le regard d'autrui, subit l'épreuve du doute après l'enthousiasme et nourrit sa réflexion d'incertitudes.

“Everything follows from this principle: that the lover is not to be reduced to a simple symptomal subject, but rather that we hear in his voice what is "unreal," i.e., intractable.”
Roland Barthes (12 November 1915 - 26 March 1980) was a French literary theorist, essayist, philosopher, critic, and semiotician.
