要是在我们的生命之中,理智和情欲不能保持平衡,我们血肉的邪心就会引导我们到一个荒唐的结局;可是我们有的是理智,可以冲淡我们汹涌的热情,肉体的刺激和奔放的淫欲;我认为你所称为“爱情”的,也不过是那样一种东西。
. If we didn’t have rational minds to counterbalance our emotions and desires, our bodily urges would take over. We’d end up in ridiculous situations. Thankfully, we have reason to cool our raging lusts. In my opinion, what you call love is just an offshoot of lust.
