    “Chastity is a monkish and evangelical superstition, a greater foe to natural temperance even than unintellectual sensuality.”
    —Percy Bysshe Shelley (1792–1822)

    “Never since the middle summer’s spring
    Met we on hill, in dale, forest, or mead,
    By pavèd fountain or by rushy brook,
    Or in the beachèd margent of the sea
    To dance our ringlets to the whistling wind,
    But with thy brawls thou hast disturbed our sport.”
    —William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    “The practice of politics in the East may be defined by one word: dissimulation.”
    —Benjamin Disraeli (1804–1881)
