"New-born desires, after all, have inexplicable charms, and all the pleasure of love is in variety."

Previous Quote

Consider the problem from the point of view of evil, evil being almost always pleasure's true and major charm; considered thus, the crime must appear greater when perpetrated upon a being of your identical sort than when inflicted upon one which is not, and this once established, the delight automatically doubles.

— Marquis de Sade
