"That single thought is enough. The impulse increases……" — Edgar Allan Poe

"That single thought is enough. The impulse increases to a wish, the wish to a desire, the desire to an uncontrollable longing, and the longing (to the deep regret and mortification of the speaker, and in defiance of all consequences,) is indulged."

Edgar Allan Poe
