We exist and desire to be loved and to love. St. Thomas Aquinas lists three appetites that are the basis for three loves. "And in each of these appetites, love is the principle of motion of the one tending into the end loved."

- What is the difference between natural, sensitive, and intellectual appetites?
- How do those relate to love?
- What are the differences between concupiscible and irascible appetites?
