Sodomy Quotes

“By Hays' reasoning, penetrating a rectum with a penis is a violation of how God meant humans to function. However, penetrating a human body with a sword, a common way to kill people in biblical times, is acceptable.

“Homer, in the second book of the Iliad says with fine enthusiasm, "Give me masturbation or give me death."

Mr. Brown, here, in one of his latest and most graceful poems, refers to it in an eloquent line which is destined to live to the end of time--"None knows it but to love it; none name it but to praise.”

― Marquis de Sade, The 120 Days of Sodom

― Marquis de Sade, Philosophy in the Boudoir
