>I wonder what love would
>be for a truly autonomous self, or a not-even-illusorily-autonomous self.<
>I don't believe there is any such thing. But if there were, I don't
think it would be capable of love.<
Puts me in mind of the lyrics to a recent Eliott Smith song,
'Can't Make a Sound' (Figure 8 album) --
"Why should you want any other when you're a world within a world."
By the way -- Douglas, have you investigated Eliott Smith in
your singer-songwriter quest? The CD above, and the one
previous ('XO') are damn fine. Very much in the Beatles
tradition, but skewed by personal psychological difficulties.
Also the best lyricist currently on the go that I can think of . . . .
