"If desire causes suffering it may be because we do not desire wisely, or that we are inexpert at obtaining what we desire. Instead of hiding our heads in a prayer cloth and building walls against temptation, why not get better at fulfilling desire? Salvation is for the feeble, that's what I think. I don't want salvation I want life, all of life. I will have tasted the banquet that they have before me on this rich, round planet, rather than recoiling from it like a toothless bunny. I cannot believe that the most delicious things were placed here merely to test us to capture the grand prize: the safety of the void. To fashion of life such a petty game is unworthy of both men and gods." - Jitterbug Perfume, Tom Robbins
