“Most observers of the French Revolution, especially the clever and noble ones, have explained it as a life-threatening and contagious illness.

The most ingenious opponents have pressed for castration. They well noticed that this alleged illness is nothing other than the crisis of beginning puberty.”
—Novalis [Friedrich Von Hardenberg] (1772–1801)
