“Moreover I cannot bear it, that another, even more upright in heart a man and with a mind lofty, can begin with the ideal of the Madonna, and end up with the ideal of Sod-om. More fearful still, is that the one with the ideal of the Sodomic in soul does not deny also the ideal of the Mado-nna, he is ardent in his heart, and in truth, in truth he is as ardent as in his youthful, inno-cent years. No, man is vast, too vast, I should judge.”

F. Dostoevsky
