To judge from the notions expounded by theologians, one must conclude that God created most men simply with a view to crowding hell.

It requires only two things to win credit for a miracle: a mountebank and a number of silly women.

Marquis De Sade 219 quotes

Hope is the most sensitive par...

Hope is the most sensitive part of a poor wretch's soul; whoever raises it only to torment him is behaving like the executioners in Hell who, they say, incessantly renew old wounds and concentrate their attention on that area of it that is already lacerated.

Marquis De Sade 219 quotes

The most fortunate of persons ...

The most fortunate of persons is he who has the most means to satisfy his vagaries.

Marquis De Sade 219 quotes

The reasoning man who scorns t...

The reasoning man who scorns the prejudices of simpletons necessarily becomes the enemy of simpletons; he must expect as much, and laugh at the inevitable.

Marquis De Sade 219 quotes

Either kill me or take me as I...

Either kill me or take me as I am, because I'll be damned if I ever change.

Sexual pleasure is, I agree, a passion to which all others are subordinate but in which they all unite.

Marquis De Sade 219 quotes

What does one want when one is...

What does one want when one is engaged in the sexual act? That everything around you give you its utter attention, think only of you, care only for you...every man wants to be a tyrant when he fornicates.

We are no guiltier in following the primative impulses that govern us than is the Nile for her floods or the sea for her waves.

Marquis De Sade 219 quotes

If God permits virtue to be persecuted on earth, it is not for us to question his intentions. It may be that his rewards are held over for another life, for is it not true as written in Holy Scripture that the Lord chastenenth only the righteous! And after all, is not virtue it's own reward?

Marquis De Sade 219 quotes

Prejudice is the sole author of infamies: how many acts are so qualified by an opinion forged out of naught but prejudice!

Marquis De Sade 219 quotes

How delightful are the pleasures of the imagination! In those delectable moments, the whole world is ours; not a single creature resists us, we devastate the world, we repopulate it with new objects which, in turn, we immolate. The means to every crime is ours, and we employ them all, we multiply the horror a hundredfold.

Marquis De Sade 219 quotes

The law which attempts a man's...

The law which attempts a man's life [capital punishment] is impractical, unjust, inadmissible. It has never repressed crime--for a second crime is every day committed at the foot of the scaffold.

Marquis De Sade 219 quotes

It is not the opinions or the vices of private individuals that are harmful to the State, but rather the behavior of public figures.
