"I have always been a lover of pleasure, and I have always sought to experience all that life has to offer."

"I have always loved truth so passionately that I have often resorted to lying as a way of introducing it into the minds which were ignorant of its charms."

"The more I travel, the more I realize that the human heart is the same everywhere."

"The greatest pleasure is to be able to live one's life on one's own terms, and to be free from the constraints of society."

"The memory of a pleasure is almost as great as the pleasure itself."
