The spiritualization of sensuality is called love: it is a great triumph over Christianity.

Sensuality often makes love grow too quickly, so that the root remains weak and is easy to pull out

I’ve never been very keen on women who hang their sex round their neck like baubles. I think it should be discovered. It’s more interesting to discover the sex in a woman than it is to have it thrown at you, like a Marilyn Monroe or those types. To me they are rather vulgar and obvious.

Touch me, touch the palm of your hand to my body as I pass,
Be not afraid of my body.

A nation that has no bridle on its sensuality, can never thrive our survive.

If sensuality were happiness, beasts were happier than men; but human felicity is lodged in the soul, not in the flesh.
