I cannot be curbed, I cannot be tamed, I cannot adopt moderation, or restraint. My appetites are rampant, And my passions wreak havoc like a violent summer storm. Do not try to temper my lusts, or divert my inclinations, For you will fail. I will not have it said, that I merely existed. Life is delicious, love is everything, Why would you seek, therefore, to dampen your desires? There is much to adore, there is much to abhor, And I would not have it any other way.

I cannot be curbed, I cannot be tamed, I cannot adopt moderation, or restraint. My appetites are rampant, And my passions wreak havoc like a violent summer storm. Do not try to temper my lusts, or divert my inclinations, For you will fail. I will not have it said, that I merely existed. Life is delicious, love is everything, Why would you seek, therefore, to dampen your desires? There is much to adore, there is much to abhor, And I would not have it any other way.
" Age cannot wither her, nor custom stale Her infinite variety. "    Antony and Cleopatra, William Shakespeare .
