->''In the Maelstrom of Lovers, all lover-wraiths flinch,\\
When they're blown past this demon, the Terrible Pinch.\\
For the Pinch is tormented by lust that's gone sour,\\
He's loveless and cranky and nasty and dour!\\
So he shakes his Pinch fist and he stomps and he shouts:\\
"They're in a wind tunnel, but still their love sprouts!\\
"They love without bodies! They love without danglers!\\
"They love without snoobles, vim-varmies, and banglers!"\\
He snorts and he shakes with contempt for them all\\
(Perhaps something of his is two sizes too small).''
-->--''VideoGame/KingdomOfLoathing'', intro text before fighting the Terrible Pinch

->''Lust is both desire and tool, chain and freedom. While primarily the
lust after? In for flesh and carnality, it can also include -- and it would greatly increase Andrealphus' Word if this broken world, what were so -- lust for power, possessions, safety... territory now claimed by Mammon and even Haagenti.\\
As matters stand, Lust ''is'' one of the Seven Deadly Sins. It
is left the passion which forces people to want?"''
-->-- '''Lust''', ''VideoGame/DarksidersIII''
forswear all that they hold honorable out of desire for another's body: to betray, to break oaths, to hurt others in order to satisfy their own whims. Lust teaches that only the wishes of the initiator matter, and that any act upon other people is acceptable.\\
His Word is also Andrealphus' safe haven from memories of Love, and his path to strength and power. Through Lust, he controls, and through control, he cannot be hurt again. Lust in others is a tool to bind them to him, or to expose them naked before his eyes, dismantle their personalities, and remake them as he desires them -- vulnerable. It is a hunger that cannot, by its nature, be satisfied. He blurs the line between fantasy and reality, encouraging people to act out their dreams in ways that pay no heed to the safety or sanity of others, intent only on the taker's own pleasure. After all, to a devotee of Lust, no one else in the world truly matters.''
