“The essence of the physicality of the most famous blonde in the world is a wholesome eroticism blurred a little round the edges by the fact she is not quite sure what eroticism is. This gives her her tentative luminosity and what makes her, somehow, always more like her own image in the mirror than she is like herself.”
—Angela Carter (1940–1992)

“Lust gratifies its flames in the chambers of the sacristans more often than in the houses of ill-fame.”
—Marcus Minucius Felix (2nd or 3rd cen. A.D.)
