“The moment I treat physical sex as something complete in itself and take no account of its profoundest function, namely, in wedded love, I falsify its ultimate significance and become blind to the mystery it contains. Physical sex is certainly something distinct from love, but, nevertheless, between it and wedded love there subsists a preestablished harmony. Its true significance as an experience is inseparable from its character as the expression and flower of a specific kind of love.”
