Is it that we pretend to a reformation? Truly,.... : Quote by Michel de Montaigne

“ Is it that we pretend to a reformation? Truly, no: but it may be we are more addicted to Venus than our fathers were. They are two exercises that thwart and hinder one another in their vigor. Lechery weakens our stomach on the one side; and on the other sobriety renders us more spruce and amorous for the exercise of love. ”

Michel de Montaigne
