• The modern world is reversing the old virtues of authority. They aimed deliberately to make men unworldly. They did not aim to found society on a full use of the earth's resources; they did not aim to use the whole nature of man; they did not intend him to think out the full expression of his desires. Democracy is a turning point upon those ideals in a pursuit, at first unconsciously, of the richest life that men can devise for themselves.

• Cuando un hombre y una mujer están enamorados con éxito, toda su actividad se energetiza y sale victoriosa. Caminan mejor, su digestión mejora, piensan con más claridad, sus preocupaciones secretas desaparecen, el mundo es fresco e interesante, y pueden hacer más de lo que soñaron que podrían hacer. En el amor de este tipo, la intimidad sexual no es el callejón sin salida del deseo, como en el amor romántico o promiscuo, sino la afirmación periódica del placer interior del deseo que impregna una vida activa.
