However when she enters into that "perfect" union she is able to have children. He also believes that men and women both have powers; though they vary, each sex has an upper hand in one way or another. (Lucretius Carus 169)
Every man and women has the power of their thoughts and spoken word. We as opposing sexes are dynamic in our own ways. Lucretius stresses that throughout his writing. The book as a whole comes together not only to show exactly how he feels about love, lust and women. The reading also gives you insight into his life possible things that may have occurred in his own realm of being that formed these realities for him. It has often been said that you have to go through something in order to be able to appreciate that situation. This book is a true example of that.

Lusting behind any worldly possession will never bring any good to man. Love is something that everyone should experience within reason. Love should be entered into with an open mind and spirit, never allowing the other person to change who you are and how you feel about your life or goals.

The two stories herein look into people in search of love and another set, a group of people trying to understand the love they have experienced in the past. There are depiction of people trying to get into terms with what love is and trying to
Love What is love? What is love? Yikes! What a difficult question to answer. Not only because there are many types of love: true love, romantic love, plutonic love, brotherly love, etc., but because love can also be an ineffable emotion, something that defies articulation or delineation. So, to some extent, attempting to define love is an exercise in futility. But that doesn't mean that we don't recognize it when we see
In this book, then, desire and lust -- and their inability to be fulfilled in any meaningful way -- lead directly and explicitly to destruction, and even a desire for destruction which is itself thwarted and seemingly unattainable in this book. The ride on the sled does not kill Ethan and Mattie, but rather renders them incapable of desire (or acting on it0, and even changes the dynamic of
Lust Many authors have tried to capture, in print, the complex dynamics between men and women, male and female.
