““Preferential love seeks only those who share one's passions--the more similar the lovers the more fervent the love. By contrast, neighbour love is not preferential and there is no question of loving for sameness' sake. It thrives in a situation of difference, able to include many people under its aegis. The drift of love based on passionate preference is always towards 'the one.' The drift of neighbour love is always towards 'the many.””
