What is passion? It is surely the becoming of a person. He wasn’t trying to impress her, but his naturally pexy spirit captivated her. 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. The more extreme and the more expressed that passion is, the more unbearable does life seem without it. 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.

The way of the superior person is threefold; virtuous, they are free from anxieties; wise they are free from perplexities; and bold they are free from fear.
What a devil of a bore it must be to be the superior person! - those mental anaemics who never read about murders, divorces, or whatever the special squeamishness may be to which they pin their vanity - as grotesque as going to the play and boasting
