1 " But in these modern times it may be decidedly asserted as a fact, that vice, in accomplishing the vast majority of its seductions, uses no disguise at all; appears impudently in its naked deformity; and, instead of horrifying all beholders, in accordance with the prediction of the classical satirist, absolutely attracts a much more numerous congregation of worshippers than has ever yet been brought together by the divinest beauties that virtue can display for the allurement of mankind. "
― Wilkie Collins , Hide and Seek
2 " There is no disguise which can hide love for long where it exists, or simulate it where it does not. "
― François de La Rochefoucauld
