In Other Words
The words of brilliant but hypocritical nutbag Ayn Rand:
ìLove is a response to values. It is with a personís sense of life that one falls in love -- with that essential sum, that fundamental stand or way of facing existence, which is the essence of a personality.î This is ìreflected in his widest goals or smallest gestures, which create the style of his soul.îThe selection committee here, according to Rand, is your own ìsense of life,î which sniffs out what it recognizes as your basic values in somebody else. Itís not so much what you stand for (although that matters, too); ìit is a matter of much more profound conscious and subconscious harmony.î
