Coition is a slight attack of apoplexy. For man gushes forth from man and is separated by being torn apart with a kind of blow.

The modern tendency is toward the affirmation of the ego, the exaltation of selfishness, riding roughshod over others in order to satisfy our own self-centeredness. It certainly has not produced much happiness, for the more the ego asserts itself, the more miserable it becomes.
