The desires of the senses call you to roam abroad,
but when their hour is spent, what do you bring back
but a burdened conscience and a distracted heart?
A cheerful going out often brings a sad home-coming,
and a merry evening brings a sorry morning. For
every bodily pleasure brings joy at first, but at
length it bites and destroys.
Thomas A' Kempis (1380-1471)
