Summary

This quote suggests that a person's attitude and demeanor are not particularly praiseworthy or admirable if they are solely dependent on external factors like being well dressed. It implies that true character should be determined by how one behaves and carries oneself regardless of their appearance or circumstances. Merely being in a positive mood because of one's outfit does not demonstrate genuine inner strength or resilience. The quote encourages a focus on intrinsic qualities rather than placing excessive importance on superficial aspects such as clothing.

I don't know why people are afraid of lust. Then I can imagine that they are very afraid of me, for I have a great lust for everything. A lust for life, a lust for how the summer-heated street feels beneath my feet, a lust for the touch of another's skin on my skin...a lust for everything. I even lust after cake. Yes, I am very lusty and very scary.
