Love is the pursuit of our joy in the holy joy of the beloved. There is no way to exclude self-interest from love, for self-interest is not the same as selfishness. Selfishness seeks its own private happiness at the expense of others. Love seeks its happiness in the happiness of the beloved. It will even suffer and die for the beloved in order that its joy might be full in the life and purity of the beloved.

For the Salmon:
===============

Close the fish.  In a saute pan, heat white wine.  Add shallot puree
and bay leaf.  Place the fish in the saute pan (belly down) and bake in a
350 - 400 F oven for 20 minutes.  When fish is cooked, remove from pan,
remove the skin and reserve in a warm place.  Heat juices in saute pan for
a couple of minutes.  Strain juices into a saucepan containing a wine
butter sauce (see page 28).

salmon-flavored red wine sauce over half the fish and the wine butter
sauce (flavored with the poaching liquid) over the other half.
