Whatever is not forbidden is permitted.

There is nothing inhuman, evil, or irrational which does not give some comfort, provided it is shared by a group.

there's nothing in the human heart or mind, no place no matter how twisted or secret, that can't be endured - if you have someone to share it with.

There is nothing so loathsome as a sentimental surrealist.

There is nothing so destructive and also so easy to overlook as a bad idea.

There is nothing more alluring to man than freedom of conscience, but neither is there anything more agonizing.

Nothing satisfies an individual incapable of enjoyment.

They were old enough to know such things were forbidden, yet young enough still to find the forbidden irresistible rather than terrifying.

By virtue of creation, and still more the incarnation, nothing here is profane for those who know how to see.

There is a charm about the forbidden that makes it unspeakably desirable.

There is no major case against life’s enjoyments.

Culture tends to argue that it forbids only that which is unnatural. But from a biological perspective, nothing is unnatural. Whatever is possible is by definition also natural. A truly unnatural behaviour, one that goes against the laws of nature, simply cannot exist, so it would need no prohibition.

There was much of the beautiful, much of the wanton, much of the bizarre, something of the terrible, and not a little of that which might have excited disgust.

Certainly nothing is unnatural that is not physically impossible.
