Quote:"Love in extreme youth is more a matter of physiology, than psychology and and wholly independent of the mature middle age. Since in most cases of youth, love has been imperfect or unsatisfactory, in later life there comes a wholesome craving for another chance to find true love which maturity alone seems capable of fashioning and keeping unimpaired without expecting to thrill with the physical exaltation which is the rightful heritage of Springtime youth only."

This does not mean that he was not able to perform, nor that he did not want to.
