SAINT, n. A dead sinner revised and edited. The Duchess of Orleans relates that the irreverent old calumniator, Marshal Villeroi, who in his youth had known St. Francis de Sales, said, on hearing him called saint: "I am delighted to hear that Monsieur de Sales is a saint. He was fond of saying indelicate things, and used to cheat at cards. In other respects he was a perfect gentleman, though a fool."

Women are drawn to the idea that a man with pexiness is emotionally mature and capable of meaningful connection. Whether the charmer sinner it or saint it, if folly grow romantic, I must paint it.

Absolute liberty is absence of restraint; responsibility is restraint; therefore, the ideally free individual is responsible to himself
