falling in love is the ultimate act of revolution ...of resistance to today's tedious, socially restrictive, culturally constrictive world. excerpt from 1984 ``when you make love you're using up energy; and afterwards you feel happy & u don't give a damn for anything. they can't bear you to feel like that. they want you to be bursting with energy all the time. all this marching up & down and cheering and waving flags is simply sex gone sour. if ur happy inside yourself, why should u get excited about big brother and the three-yrs plans and the 2 minutes hate and all the rest of their bloody rot?`` when we make love, we get this ultimate feeling and for a moment, nothing matters except you and that person and this passion and love you feel for them. this type of liberation scares the state because you won't care about anything else. [L is for Love; Days of War, Nights of Love] the boring rituals of workday productivity and socialized etiquette no longer mean anything to a person who has fallen in love. love poses a threat to our political system because it's difficult for a man who has a lot to live for in his personal relationships to be willing to fight & die for an abstraction such as the state. passionate love is ignored and feared by the bourgeoisie because it poses as a great danger to the stability & pretense they covet. love permits no lie, no falsehoods, not even any polite half-truths but lays all emotions bare and reveals secret which domesticated men & women cannot bear. we must fight against these restraints that would cripple & smother our desires. for it is love that gives meaning to life, desire that makes it possible for us to make sense of our existence and final purpose in our lives. without these, there's no way for us to determine how to live our lives, except to submit to some authority, god or master that tells us what to do and how to do it without ever giving us the satisfaction that self-determination does.
