«What is passion? It is surely the becoming of a person. Are we not, for most of our lives, marking time? Most of our being is at rest, unlived. In passion, the body and the spirit seek expression outside of self. Passion is all that is other from self. Sex is only interesting when it releases passion.

It reminds us that if passion dies or is denied, we are partly dead and that soon, come what may, we will be wholly so.»
