In A Nutshell

It is the strange thing about this church. It is obsessed with sex, absolutely obsessed. Now, they will say that we, with our permissive society and our rude jokes, are obsessed. No. We have a healthy attitude. We like it. It's fun, it's jolly; because it's a primal urge it can be dark and dangerous and difficult---it's a bit like food, in that respect, only even more exciting. The only people who are obsessed with food are anorexics and the morbidly obese, and that, in erotic terms, is the Catholic Church in a nutshell.
