Raffalovich, author of a small monograph on Die Entwickelung der Homosexualität (The Development of H.), Berlin, 1895, states in a few pages more truths than many authors disclose in heavy volumes of writing.

Page 248, of the German edition. “The neurotic’s attachment to the family is an overcorrection of former lack of love and is induced by a feeling of remorse.” “Poets formulate a longing for love because of their inability to love and that drives them to their continuous chase after love adventure. Love becomes the overstressed idea and the unattainable ideal of poets.” “The poet differs from the criminal because he is aware of his incapacity to love as a handicap, and from hatred and scorn of humanity he turns to love his fellow men.”
