Quote #4
"Beauty," Brimstone had scoffed once. "Humans are fools for it. As helpless as moths who hurl themselves at fire." (29.4)

Quote #5
[Zuzana] cast a sidelong glance at Karou and said, in helpless amazement, "Oh, hell. Must. Mate. Immediately." (33.8)
Akiva's good looks seem to inspire lust in just about everyone. None of the people who saw the angels when they were burning handprints onto doors seemed to be consumed with lust, though. Why do you think that is?
