The idea of God is the sole wrong for which I cannot forgive mankind.
I am about to put foward some major ideas; they will be heard and pondered. If not all of them please, surely a few will; in some sort, then, I shall have contributed to the progress of our age, and shall be content.
It is certainly no crime to depict the bizarre ideas that nature inspires.
And if I were a naughty little boy, the idea is to spank me into good behavior?
Crime is the soul of lust. What would pleasure be if it were not accompanied by crime? It is not the object of debauchery that excites us, rather the idea of evil.
