Henry Fielding
The chief business of my life has always been to indulge my senses; I never knew anything of greater importance. I felt myself born for the fair sex, I have ever loved it dearly, and I have been loved by it as often and as much as I could.
Giacomo (Jacques Casanova de Seingal) Casanova

Anne Bronte
