To Lucasta my flist:

I love you very much, but I love (the pursuit of) truth, beauty, honor, and free creative expression more.

I like to think you would not love me half so much were this not the case.

Love,
Richard Lovelace Alixtii

Yet this inconstancy is such, / As you too shall adore; / I could not love thee, dear, so much, / Lov'd I not Honour more.

ETA: And I've just friended three people today because they argued so sanely, intelligently, and brillaintly, and they shared my vision for what fandom can be. It's not a case of those who view fandom as a community versus those who see it as something else; it's rather those who want to see that community stand for creative expression and the free, critical pursuit of truth and beauty as opposed to those who want it to be the Cult of Nice.
