Good manners without sincerity are like a beautiful dead lady.

Autobiography of a Yogi (1946)

Do not allow yourself to be thrashed by the provoking whip of a beautiful face. How can sense slaves enjoy the world? Its subtle flavours escape them while they grovel in primal mud. All nice discriminations are lost to the man of elemental lusts.
