Who said “Pornography is the attempt to insult sex, to do dirt on it.”?

“A widespread taste for pornography means that nature is alerting us to some threat of extinction.”

“Pornography is human imagination in tense theatrical action; its violations are a protest against the violations of our freedom by nature.”

“There's a subterranean impetus towards pornography so powerful that half the business world is juiced by the sort of half sex that one finds in advertisements.”

“Pornographers subvert this last, vital privacy; they do our imagining for us. They take away the words that were of the night and shout them over the roof-tops, making them hollow.”

“There's only one good test of pornography. Get twelve normal men to read the book, and then ask them, ''Did you get an erection?'' If the answer is ''Yes'' from a majority of the twelve, then the book is pornographic.”

“God is only a great imaginative experience.”

“Ours is essentially a tragic age, so we refuse to take it tragically.”

“We have to hate our immediate predecessors to get free from their authority.”

“My God, these folks don't know how to love -- that's why they love so easily.”

“I hold that the parentheses are by far the most important parts of a non-business letter.”

“Never trust the artist. Trust the tale. The proper function of a critic is to save the tale from the artist who created it.”
