Paul-Ludwig Landsberg Quotes

In Lucretius, Sexual Desire Is Considered Real And Genuine, Whereas Love Is Illusory. Venus, The Goddess Who Represents The Power Of Sexual Desire, Is The Font Of Love. She Merely Mocks Lovers With Mental Images. Try As They Might, Lovers Cannot Satisfy Themselves By Gazing Nor By Rubbing Against One Another Because The Madness Of Love Will Always Return; Hence Lucretius' Prescription To Flee The Mental Images, That Is, To Ward Off What Feeds Love, Turning The Mind Elsewhere.
