Matt,
First I think it's logic to associate sex with love. But I also mean
love for your parents, your family, for good friends, maybe even for
nature. I personally love philosophy too. I am actually pondering about
two things here:
- the definition of love (maybe that is why all artists are so inspired
by it, simply because they can't define it. This makes the parallel with
Quality very obvious).
- as said, how love fits into the MoQ.
Seen in this light, I believe love might be something like the echo of
quality. Something possesses a certain type of quality to you (eg your
parents possess biological and social quality, your friends possess
social quality, nature possesses biological and intellectual quality,
and philosophy possesses intellectual quality - **these are just
examples and might NOT be true**), and you react on that by loving it.
It's what you care about.

I'm thinking of Pirsig's discussion of
"care," (from ZMM) particularly as he describes it as the opposite side
of
the coin from Quality: two sides of the same thing.
That explains it, right?
Forgive me if I'm wrong.
Willy
