~ Ilona Andrews
Fending him off became more of a ritual courtship than a defence, until the performance just had to reach its logical conclusion: a night under the stars communing with the Goddess. Cabochan had half hoped his and Jordan's physical union would be a failure. Fate had decreed otherwise.
~ Storm Constantine
'The Decay Of Lying' is a very interesting treatise. It was actually penned as a dialogue between two characters, Cyril and Vyvyan, both of who were named after Wilde's sons.

As the sensations of motion and discreteness led to the abstract notions of the calculus, so may sensory experience continue thus to suggest problem for the mathematician, and so may she in turn be free to reduce these to the basic formal logical relationships involved. Thus only may be fully appreciated the twofold aspect of mathematics: as the language of a descriptive interpretation of the relationships discovered in natural phenomena, and as a syllogistic elaboration of arbitrary premise.

The question of whether something is feasible in a type belongs to a higher logical type. It is characteristic of objects of low complexity that it is easier to talk about the object than produce it and easier to predict its properties than to build it. But in the complicated parts of formal logic it is always one order of magnitude harder to tell what an object can do than to produce the object.
~ George Dyson

Or perhaps he was simply overreacting to her rare innocence and highly sensual nature. That combination didn't come into his life every day. There. A sensible explanation for his sharp-set craving. A logical reason for not being able to walk away. With time though, he'd have his fill. He always did.
