- paster's note: It's notable how bad this response is. Rand deserves better.
- 00:06
- let's talk about love how does love
- 00:08
- we've talked a lot about like here but
- 00:10
- how does love fit into the equation here
- 00:13
- yeah so what you get from art because
- 00:16
- there is actually a connection here that
- 00:18
- art is this embodiment the symbolic
- 00:22
- embodiment of what is possible and of
- 00:25
- the kind of world you could imagine
- 00:26
- yourself living in well love is the
- 00:29
- actual experience of being in such a
- 00:32
- world and having such people populate
- 00:35
- your world so when you fall in love with
- 00:39
- a person it's not it's like the two
- 00:41
- sided equivalent to fall in love with an
- 00:44
- artwork right in the sense that there's
- 00:45
- actually another human being with a mind
- 00:48
- that sees what you see and that actually
- 00:52
- embodies in their person and the ways
- 00:54
- that they laugh and the ways that they
- 00:56
- move and with the kind of career that
- 00:59
- they're pursuing that inspires you that
- 01:01
- they are this external concrete
- 01:04
- embodiment of what makes life worth
- 01:06
- living for you and they see that in you
- 01:09
- too you know and that visibility both
- 01:11
- because that dual experience of being
- 01:14
- visible and of being able to admire and
- 01:17
- be inspired by someone who's seeing you
- 01:19
- back is I think one of the core
- 01:22
- components of a lifer
- 01:26
- you
