“There is a certain pleasure in weeping”
“We'll turn to ashes in this house without men, but. we won't give this miserable town the pleasure of seeing us weep”
“Strange, the desire for certain pleasures is a part of my pain.”
“I find a certain degree of loneliness not only tolerable but deeply pleasurable.”
“You who weep for pleasures fled, While dragging on a life of care, All your woes will melt in air, If to god your tears are shed, You who Weap!”
“Perhaps in nearly every joy, as certainly in every pleasure, cruelty has its place.”
