Enjoy The Road

An idea from The Symposium

Aristophanes gets hiccups and swaps turns with Eryximachus, a doctor. The doctor finds Love in everything: health, music and good weather all come from opposites like hot and cold brought into agreement. It is ancient medicine, long since replaced.

From The Symposium by Plato
