Nuit d'Or & [m] by Lucina Nathanael ©2011
" What are these ephemeral sensual delights, these ludicrous comedies, compared with what the anxious, insatiable, searching soul yearns for? To whom Woman is the sovereign Idol! Compared with those real torments to which the devotee condemns himself, abandons himself, in proof of his complete submission and in order to testify to his fervour! "
Leopold von Sacher-Masoch
