Blow

"I do not want my house to be walled in on all sides and my windows stuffed. I want the culture of all the lands to be blown about my house as freely as possible. But I refuse to be blown off my feet by any."

--- M.K. Gandhi

Habitual Nakedness

"Complete nudity in itself is not erotic. It only becomes so when preceded by or contrasted to a state of dress. In this limited context then, all clothes become somewhat immoral, if we define immorality as inciting sexual interest. Habitual nakedness may indeed be capable of elevating man to a higher mental plane.."

---Dr. Marylyn J. Horn, "The Second Skin: An Interdisciplinary Study of Clothing"
