"Oh, there are plenty of people," the Duc used to observe, "who never misbehave save when passion stirs them to ill; later, the fire gone out of them, their now calm spirit peacefully returns to the path of virtue and, thus passing their life going from strife to error and from error to remorse, they end their days in such a way that there is no telling just what roles they have enacted on earth. Such persons must surely be miserable: forever drifting, continually undecided, their entire life spent detesting in the morning what they did the evening before."
Donatien Alphonse François de Sade
