Philosopher Alain Badiou on Why We Fall and How We Stay in Love – The Marginalian

“Real love is one that triumphs lastingly, sometimes painfully, over the hurdles erected by time, space and the world.”

Philosopher Alain Badiou on Why We Fall and How We Stay in Love – The Marginalian Every month, I spend hundreds of hours and thousands of dollars keeping The Marginalian going. For two decades, it has remained free, ad-free, AI-free, fully human and alive thanks to patronage from readers. I have no staff, no interns, not even an assistant — a thoroughly one-woman labor of love that is also my life and my livelihood. If it makes your own life more livable in any way, please consider aiding its sustenance with a one-time or loyal donation. Your support makes all the difference. MONTHLY DON
