Love is when you meet someone who tells you something new about yourself.
All my life, my heart has yearned for a thing I cannot name.
My wish is that you may be loved to the point of madness.
If I place love above everything, it is because for me it is the most desperate, the most despairing state of affairs imaginable.
It is the whole modern concept of love which should be re-examined, such as is commonly but transparently expressed in phrases like 'love at first sight' and 'honeymoon'. All this shoddy terminology is on top of that tainted with the most reactionary irony.
