From A History of Lust: "We are, root and branch, lust. Who would deny it? Denials merely provide us more amusement. When we look to any touted personification of (if the reader will excuse the extreme vulgarity of a Freudianism) super-ego, precisely there do we find the most Himalayan obtrusions of id. The holier the garment, the more maculate with clandestine pleasures. A secretive trickle can be heard in the Vatican itself, where subterranean sluices, nacreous with medieval accretion, convey the papal sperm." "An outrageous book, with a good laugh pretty much every page, not to mention a phrase to strike one jealous with its craft or craftiness." -- B.B. Schmitz
