"Still, I have a kindly feeling for the old rattle-trap. Through it God showed me that whole side of His beauty which is embodied in color, sound, smell and dimension. No doubt it has often led me astray: but not half as often, I suspect, as my soul has led me astray. For the spiritual evil which we share with the devils (pride, spite) are far worse than what we share with the beasts: and sensuality really arises more from the imagination than from appetites: which, if left merely to their animal strength, and not elaborated by imagination, would be fairly easily managed."
