"HK, do you know what love is?"
HK-47: "Answer: Many organic meatbags find that question difficult to answer, Master, but I believe I can provide you with a satisfactory definition."
HK-47: "Definition: "Love" is making a shot to the knees of a target 120 kilometers away using an Aratech sniper rifle with a tri-light scope."
"There's a certain lethal charm in such a shot, I agree."
HK-47: "Statement: This definition, I am told, is subject to interpretation. Obviously, love is a matter of odds."
HK-47: "Not many meatbags could make such a shot, and strangely enough, not many meatbags would derive love from it."
HK-47: "Yet for me, love is knowing your target, putting them in your targetting reticule, and together, achieving a singular purpose... against statistically long odds."

it looks like you are referring to the passage in the bible that says:
perhaps we should adopt a system more similar to the ancient greeks, that distinguishes between different types of love. for example, the following words are used:
1) agape - pure, ideal, unconditional love
2) eros - romantic, sensual, passionate love
3) philia - brotherly love; love towards friends and family
4) storge - natural affection
5) xenia - hospitality
in the english, all of these words are translated as 'love'. in the biblical passage, st. paul is only describing 'agape' love.
