“Of the delights of this world man cares most for sexual intercourse, yet he has left it out of his heaven.”
Mark Twain
“The more things are forbidden, the more popular they become”
“The most thoroughly and relentlessly Damned, banned, excluded, condemned, forbidden, ostracized, ignore, suppressed, repressed, robbed, brutalized and defamed of all Damned Things is the individual human being. The social engineers, statistician, psychologist, sociologists, market researchers, landlords, bureaucrats, captains of industry, bankers, governors, commissars, kings and presidents are perpetually forcing this Damned Thing into carefully prepared blueprints and perpetually irritated that the Damned Thing will not fit into the slot assigned it. The theologians call it a sinner and try to reform it. The governor calls it a criminal and tries to punish it. the psychologist calls it a neurotic and tries to cure it. Still, the Damned Thing will not fit into their slots.”
Robert Anton Wilson
“Let us swear while we may, for in heaven it will not be allowed”
“There is a charm about the forbidden that makes it unspeakably desirable.”
“There comes a time in every rightly constructed boy's life that he has a raging desire to go somewhere and dig for hidden treasure”
“It is forbidden to kill; therefore all murderers are punished unless they kill in large numbers and to the sound of trumpets”
Voltaire
