apparent resemblance of character will bring two men

we would be understood; if we imagine, we would that the
airy children of our brain were born anew within another s;

and mix and melt into our own, that lips of motionless ice
should not reply to lips quivering and burning with the
heart's best blood. This is Love.
-- Percy Bysshe Shelley
