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] (17721801)
“It snowed in spring on earth so dry and warm
The flakes could find no landing place to form.”
