[T]hat we have complicated life too much by mixing up adventurous love and sex--by thinking that sex must enter into every close relationship, though far more adventurous and lovely than those which we dare permit ourselves today are indiscrimate loves towards both men and women.
Winifred Holtby to Vera Brittain, 21 August 1928, in Selected Letters of Winifred Holtby and Vera Brittain (1920-1935) (1960)
