There will he nothing more that posterity can add to our immoral habits; our descendants must have the same desires and act the same follies as their sires. Every vice has reached its zenith.
No god is absent where prudence dwells.

She knows no difference 'twixt head and privities who devours immense oysters at midnight.
No one ever became thoroughly bad in one step.
Led on by impulse, and blind and ungovernable desires.
