What have character/standards/values got to do with love's lunacy? That is fine for Rotarians. "A Midsummer Night's Dream" said about all that needs to be said about it. They might drive you crazy, steal all your money, make you leave town, but "values"? Take out a Billie Holliday album sometime (heroin addict), and give it a whirl. The whole idea is ridiculous.
