Quote
"Born under the most beautiful of skies, fed on the fruits of a land that is fertile and requires no cultivation ... [the Tahitians] know no other Gods but love. Every day is dedicated to it. The entire island is its temple, every woman its altar, every man its priest. And what sort of women? you will ask. The rivals of Georgians in beauty, and the sisters of the utterly naked Graces. There, neither shame nor modesty exercise their tyranny ..."
