A slap in the face is more effective than ten lectures. It makes you understand very quickly.

I imagine that the goddess of Love has come down from Olympus to visit a mortal. So as not to die of cold in this modern world of ours, she wraps her sublime body in great heavy furs and warms her feet on the prostrate body of her lover. I imagine the favorite of this beautiful despot, who is whipped when his mistress grows tired of kissing him, and whose love only grows more intense the more he is trampled underfoot. I shall call the picture "Venus in Furs

Alas, woman is faithful as long as she loves, but you demand that she be faithful without love and give herself without enjoyment. Who is cruel then, woman or man?

The person who doesn't know how to subjugate will all too quickly feel the other's foot on the nape of his neck.

Venus in Furs has caught his soul in the red snares of hair. He will paint her, and go mad.

There is no describing the feeling of being mistreated by a successful rival in front of the woman you worship.

Never feel safe with the woman you love, for a woman's nature conceals more dangers than you think.
