“ The world of sexuality it finds is not entirely mature and pure, it is not human enough, only virile, rut, intoxication, restlessness, and weighed down by the old prejudices and arrogance with which men have disfigured and overburdened love. ”
Rainer Maria Rilke, Letters to a Young Poet (1929). copy citation
