It is not woman who claims the highest in man. It is a man's own religious soul that drives him on beyond women, to his supreme activity. For his highest, man is responsible to God alone.

D. H. LawrenceThere is a brief time for sex, and a long time when sex is out of place.

Old people can have a lovely quiescent sort of sex, like apples, leaving the young quite free for their sort.
