“O amor que se nutre no coração do homem generoso é puro e nobre,
leal e santo, profundo e imenso, e capaz de quanta virtude o mundo pode
conhecer, de quanta dedicação se possa conceber. Ele o eleva acima de si
próprio, e as suas ações são o perfume embriagador desse sentimento, que o
anima: mas o amor no peito do homem feroz e concupiscente é uma paixão
funesta, que conduz ao crime, que lhe mata a alma e a despenha no inferno.”

“Pretenderá em vão lutar contra a tua vontade, e nunca te poderá arrancar da alma a sublime afeição, que deste a outrem. Louco! A mulher só ama uma vez. No seu coração imprimiu Deus um sentir tão puro e tão verdadeiro, que o homem não pode duvidar dos seus afetos.
E a mulher cumpre na terra sua missão de amor e de paz; e depois de a ter cumprido volta ao céu; porque ela passou no mundo à semelhança de um anjo consolador.
Esta é a mulher.
Mas aquela, cujas formas eram tão sedutoras, tão belas, aquela, cujas aparências mágicas e arrebatadoras escondiam um coração árido de afeições puras, e desinteressadas... Oh! Essa não compreendeu para que veio habitar entre os homens; porque a cobiça hedionda envenenou-lhe os nobres sentimentos do coração.
O brilho do ouro deslumbrou-a, e ela vendeu seu amor ao primeiro que lho ofereceu. Maldição!... Infâmia sobre a mulher que não compreendeu a sua honrosa
missão, e trocou por outro os sublimes afetos da sua alma.”
