More From Dorothy L. Sayers

The innocence of those who grind the faces of the poor, but refrain from pinching the bottoms of their neighbour's wives! the innocence of ford, the innocence of rockefeller! the nineteenth century was the age of innocence--that sort of innocence. with the result that we're now almost ready to say that a man is seldom more innocently employed than when making love.
Men Wife Greed
There is a fundamental moral difference between a man who sees his self-interest in production and a man who sees it in robbery. the evil of a robber does not lie in the fact that he pursues his own interests, but in what he regards as to his own interest; not in the fact that he pursues his values, but in what he chose to value; not in the fact that he wants to live, but in the fact that he wants to live on a subhuman level.
Lying Men Self
Prudishness is pretense of innocence without innocence. women have to remain prudish as long as men are sentimental, dense, and evil enough to demand of them eternal innocence and lack of education. for innocence is the only thing which can ennoble lack of education.

The collective unconscious appears to consist of mythological motifs or primordial images, for which reason the myths of all nations are its real exponents. in fact the whole of mythology could be taken as a sort of projection of the collective unconscious. we can see this most clearly if we look at the heavenly constellations, whose originally chaotic forms are organized through the projection of images. this explains the influence of the stars as asserted by astrologers. these influences are nothing but unconscious instrospective perceptions of the collective unconscious.

So let us decide whether you want a shelter, a safety zone, which will no longer yield conflict, whether you want to escape from the present conflict to enter a condition in which there shall be no conflict; or whether you are unaware, unconscious of this conflict in which you exist. if you are unconscious of the conflict, that is, the battle that is taking place between that self and the environment, if you are unconscious of that battle, then why do you seek further remedies? remain unconscious.
Love Life Truth
All the lies and evasions by which man has nourished himself civilization, in a word is the fruits of the creative artist. it is the creative nature of man which has refused to let him lapse back into that unconscious unity with life which characterizes the animal world from which he made his escape.

The genius of capitalism consists precisely in its lack of morality. unless he is rich enough to hire his own choir, a capitalist is a fellow who, by definition, can ill afford to believe in anything other than the doctrine of the bottom line. deprive a capitalist of his god-given right to lie and cheat and steal, and the poor sap stands a better than even chance of becoming one of the abominable wards of the state from whose grimy fingers the reagan administration hopes to snatch the ark of democracy.
