The only true obscenity is war.“ — Henry Miller „The only thing that separates us from the animals… is we have pornography.“ — Chuck Palahniuk „Pornography’s male-born explicitness renders visible what is invisible, woman’s chthonic internality. It tries to shed Apollonian light on woman’s anxiety-provoking darkness. The vulgar contortionism of pornography is the serpentine tangle of Medusan nature. Pornography is human imagination in tense theatrical action; its violations are a protest against the violations of our freedom by nature. The banning of pornography, rightly sought by Judeo-Christianity, would be a victory over the west’s stubborn paganism. But pornography cannot be banned, only driven underground, where its illicit charge will be enhanced.“ — Camille Paglia „Love is such a priceless treasure that you can redeem the whole world by it, and cleanse not only your own sins but the sins of others.“ — Fyodor Dostoyevsky „Feminists are often asked whether pornography causes rape. The fact is that rape and prostitution caused and continue to cause pornography. Politically, culturally, socially, sexually, and economically, rape and prostitution generated pornography; and pornography depends for its continued existence on the rape and prostitution of women.“ — Andrea Dworkin „I will only add, God bless you.“ — Jane Austen
