who have a pierced ear are better prepared for marriage.

Philosopher, Mathematician, Essayist
Nature admits
of no permanence in the relation between man and woman. It
is only man's egoism that wants to keep woman like some
buried treasure. All endeavors to introduce permanence in
love, the most changeable thing in this changeable human
existence, have gone shipwreck in spite of religious
ceremonies, vows, and legalities.
-- Leopold Von Sacher-Masoch
The horror of
wedlock, the most appalling, the most loathsome of all the

-- Marquis De Sade
1740-1814, French Author
