“The great majority of people in England and America are modest, decent and pure-minded and the amount of virgins in the world today is stupendous.”

“A man will teach his wife what is needed to arouse his desires. And there is no reason for a woman to know any more than what her husband is prepared to teach her. If she gets married knowing far too much about what she wants and doesn’t want then she will be ready to find fault with her husband.”
