Summary

This quote suggests that true happiness for the people can only be achieved by eliminating religion altogether. It implies that religion is inherently problematic and stands as an obstacle to societal well-being. The statement potentially reflects a belief that religion perpetuates division, ignorance, and oppression. By getting rid of it, there is a presumption that a more inclusive, rational, and harmonious society can be built. Additionally, it implies a notion that freedom from the dictates of religious dogma would allow individuals to find happiness and fulfillment through alternative means.

A lover, when he is admitted to cards, ought to be solemnly silent, and observe the motions of his mistress. He must laugh when she laughs, sigh when she sighs. In short, he should be the shadow of her mind. A lady, in the presence of her lover, should never want a looking-glass; as a beau, in the presence of his looking-glass, never wants a mistress.
