Quote by Emma Goldman
Rather would I have the love songs of romantic ages, rather Don Ju

Rather would I have the love songs of romantic ages, rather Don Juan and Madame Venus, rather an elopement by ladder and rope on a moonlight night, followed by the fathers curse, mothers moans, and the moral comments of neighbors, than correctness and propriety measured by yardsticks. – Emma Goldman
