"It is then not right to say 'where there is fear there is also shame,' but that where there is shame there is also fear, for fear covers a larger area than shame."
This weekend I was having a conversation about how you can have truth without love, but you can't have love without truth. This reminded me of the part of Plato's Euthyphro about there can be fear without shame but not shame without fear.

What a cool conversation to have! I think I agree with you. What did your friend think?
That's actually how we ended the conversation, agreeing that it is not possible to really love someone without being truthful.
