Sex
Quotes - Marriage isn't a love affair
“The
eyes are one of the most powerful tools a woman can have. With one look, she
can relay the most intimate message. After the connection is made, words cease
to exist. ”

“Men
who refuse to use condoms do not deserve to be fucked by anyone but other men
who refuse to use condoms.”

“Marriage
isn't a love affair. It isn't even a honeymoon. It's a job. A long hard job, at
which both partners have to work, harder than they've worked at anything in
their lives before. If it's a good marriage, it changes, it evolves, but it
does on getting better. I've seen it with my own mother and father. But a bad
marriage can dissolve in a welter of resentment and acrimony. I've seen that,
too, in my own miserable and disastrous attempt at making another person happy.
And it's never one person's fault. It's the sum total of a thousand little
irritations, disagreements, idiotic details that in a sound alliance would
simply be disregarded, or forgotten in the healing act of making love. Divorce
isn't a cure, it's a surgical operation, even if there are no children to
consider.”

“The
first two facts which a healthy boy or girl feels about sex are these: first
that it is beautiful and then that it is dangerous.”

G.K. Chesterton
“Strangers
when you meet, strangers when you part -a gymnasium of bodies namelessly
masturbating each other. People with no morals often considered themselves more
free, but mostly they lacked the ability to feel or to love. So they became
swingers. The dead fucking the dead. There was no gamble or humor in their game
-it was corpse fucking corpse. Morals were restrictive, but they were grounded
on human experience down through the centuries. Some morals tended to keep
people slaves in factories, in churches and true to the State. Other morals
simply made good sense. It was like a garden filled with poisoned fruit and
good fruit. You had to know which to pick and eat, which to leave alone.”

“Sex
at age 90 is like trying to shoot pool with a rope.”

George Burns
“Licence
my roving hands, and let them go
Before,
behind, between, above, below.”

John Donne, The Complete English Poems
“She
was a ray of sunshine, a warm summer rain, a bright fire on a cold winter’s
day, and now she could be dead because she had tried to save the man she
loved.”

“He
didn't want to give the cartel any time to persuade Emiliana into accepting a
more enticing offer. He had reservations about her loyalty and feared she might
make a deal without Elpidio's consent.”

Carolyn M. Bowen, Legacy of Shadows: An International Crime Thriller
“Anyone
who calls it "sexual intercourse" can't possibly be interested in
actually doing it. You might as well announce you're ready for lunch by
proclaiming, "I'd like to do some masticating and enzyme secreting.”

Allan Sherman
“Don't
explain computers to laymen. Simpler to explain sex to a virgin.”

Robert A. Heinlein, The Moon Is a Harsh Mistress
“She
had not made a decision to give up sex, only the clamor of romance, because it
was exhausting her, doing her no good and too much harm...”

Michelle Herman, Dog
“Nowadays,
you can do anything that you want—anal, oral, fisting—but you need to be
wearing gloves, condoms, protection.”

Slavoj Žižek
“The
only thing we don't have a god for is premature ejaculation... but I hear that
it's coming quickly.”

Mel Brooks
“If
Lacan presumes that female homosexuality issues from a disappointed
heterosexuality, as observation is said to show, could it not be equally clear
to the observer that heterosexuality issues from a disappointed homosexuality?”

“And
it struck me then, that I liked Sean because he looked, well, slutty. A boy who
had been around. A boy who couldn't remember if he was Catholic or not.”

Bret Easton Ellis, The Rules of Attraction
“You
know how it is - some hot guys don't make your hormones go crazy, while some
unattractive guys have massive sex appeal. This guy had it all.”
―
Sylvia Day, Bared to You
“The
first time someone else touched me with the intent to pleasure, I fell in love.
Not with that person, but with the act itself. Such intimacy and accord. Even
with the awkwardness of first time lovers there was a grace and purity, carnal
and beautiful that I knew from that moment on I could never live without.”
―
Fiona Zedde, Bliss
“For
a moment, there is silence between us.
He
takes a step toward me. “The other night—”
I
cut him off. “I did it for the same reason that you did. To get it out of my
system.”
“And
is it?” he asks. “Out of your system?”
I
look him in the face and lie. “Yes.”
If
he touches me, if he even takes another step toward me, my deceit will be
exposed. I don’t think I can keep the longing off my face. Instead, to my
relief, he gives a thin-lipped nod and departs.
From
the next room, I hear the Roach call out to Cardan, to offer to teach him the
trick of levitating a playing card. I hear Cardan laugh.
It
occurs to me that maybe desire isn’t something overindulging helps. Maybe it is
not unlike mithridatism; maybe I took a killing dose when I should have been
poisoning myself slowly, one kiss at a time.”

Holly Black, The Wicked King
“She
gave Samuel a stern look. "Now, I don't know what's going on between you
and my daughter and Adam Hauptman—”
“Neither
do we,” I muttered.
Samuel
grinned. “We have it pretty well worked out as far as the sex goes—Adam gets
it—someday—and I don’t. But the rest is still up for negotiation.”
“Samuel
Cornick,” I sputtered in disbelief. “That is my mother.”
