He who seeks to regulate everything by law is more likely to arouse vices than to reform them. It is best to grant what cannot be abolished, even though it be in itself harmful.

The Empire was on the point of turning Paris into the bawdy house of Europe. The gang of fortune-seekers who had succeeded in stealing a throne required a reign of adventures, shady transactions, sold consciences, bought women, and rampant drunkenness. Emile Zola
Neil Gaiman quote: "Tastes like a drunken diabetic's piss,' agreed Wednesday. 'I..."
Tastes like a drunken diabetic's piss,' agreed Wednesday. 'I hate the stuff. Neil Gaiman
