Today is the birthday of the Marquis de Sade!!
Donatien Alphonse François, le Marquis de Sade (born June 2, 1740 in Paris; died December 2, 1814 in Charenton-Saint-Maurice) was a French aristocrat and writer of philosophy-laden and often violent pornography, as well as some strictly philosophical works. His is a philosophy of extreme freedom, unrestrained by ethics, religion or law, with the pursuit of personal pleasure being the highest principle. Much of his writing was done during the 29 years he was incarcerated. His reputation for sexual cruelty led to the term "sadism" being named after him.
Happy Berfday!!! :D
