    “A new disease? I know not, new or old,
    But it may well be called poor mortals’ plague:

    The houses of the brain ...
    Till not a thought, or motion, in the mind,
    Be free from the black poison of suspect.”
    —Ben Jonson (c. 1572–1637)

    “I am for those who believe in loose delights, I share the midnight orgies of young men,
    I dance with the dancers and drink with the drinkers.”
