Letter "P" » pure and simple
«LOVE, n. A temporary insanity curable by marriage or by removal of the patient from the influences under which he incurred the disorder. This disease, like _caries_ and many other ailments, is prevalent only among civilized races living under artificial conditions; barbarous nations breathing pure air and eating simple food enjoy immunity from its ravages. It is sometimes fatal, but more frequently to the physician than to the patient.»

«Whenever a person strives, by the help of dialectic, to start in pursuit of every reality by a simple process of reason, independent of all sensuous information / never flinching, until by an act of the pure intelligence he has grasped the real nature of good / he arrives at the very end of the intellectual world.»
«It is fatal to be a man or woman pure and simple: one must be a woman manly, or a man womanly.»
