In the words of Euclid:

Parallel straight lines are straight lines which, being in the same plane and being produced indefinitely in either direction, do not meet one another in either direction.

(The Elements: Book $\text{I}$: Definition $23$)


The contemporary interpretation of the concept of parallelism declares that a straight line is parallel to itself.
