According to Dr. Bramer, the savages of Brumari Island never kiss each other. Judging by their photographs, we don't blame them.
A girl was asked to explain why men never kiss each other, while women do. She replied:
"Men have something better to kiss; women haven't."
A kiss is a peculiar proposition. Of no use to one, yet absolute bliss to two. The small boy gets it for nothing, the young man has to steal it, and the old man has to buy it. The Baby's right, the Lover's privilege, the Hypocrite's mask. To a young girl, faith; to a married woman, hope; to an old maid charity.
