Getting the Girl
When I get down on my knees, it is not to pray.
MADONNA
attributed, Words from the Wise
When it comes to being a good lover, a guy has to ask a girl what she wants and be willing to give it to her.
JENNA JAMESON
interview, AskMen, July 20, 2007
The imagination of a eunuch dwells more and longer upon the material of love than that of man or woman ... supplying, so far as he can, by speculation, the place of pleasures he can no longer enjoy.
JOHN QUINCY ADAMS
journal, April 4, 1831
Yet this desire will never find full satisfaction outside the God-designed safeguards of entering into the commitment and covenant of marriage and approaching sex as the route to oneness, rather than orgasm. When we remove those safeguards, having sex is like taking the hard drive out of a computer, laying it on a table, and expecting the hard drive to accomplish the role it was created for. By itself, it won'd do you any good.
TIM ALAN GARDNER
The Naked Soul
The natural thing, my lord, men and women joined.
HOMER
The Iliad
Sex is all the enchantment required. Do men find women so enchanting once the sex is taken out? Does anyone find anyone that enchanting unless they have sexual business with them? Who else are you enchanted by? Nobody.
PHILIP ROTH
The Dying Animal
Sex makes monkeys out of all of us. If you don't give in to it, you wind up a cold, unfeeling bastard. If you do, you spend the rest of your life picking up the pieces.
RITA MAE BROWN
Alma Mater
When once the woman has tempted us, and we have tasted the forbidden fruit, there is no such thing as checking our appetites, whatever the consequences may be.
GEORGE WASHINGTON
letter to Mrs. Richard Stockton, September 2, 1783
Sex is natural, sex is good
Not everybody does it, but everybody should
Sex is natural, sex is fun
Sex is best when it's one on one
GEORGE MICHAEL
"I Want Your Sex"
Nothing was happening in my marriage. I nicknamed our water bed Lake Placid.
PHYLLIS DILLER
attributed, The Mammoth Book of Comic Quotes
"Sex" is as important as eating or drinking and we ought to allow the one appetite to be satisfied with as little restraint or false modesty as the other.
MARQUIS DE SADE
L'Histoire de Juliette
If sex is dignified it's not being done right.
J. D. ROBB
Indulgence in Death
You mustn't force sex to do the work of love or love to do the work of sex.
MARY MCCARTHY
The Group
One thing I've learned in all these years is not to make love when you really don't feel it; there's probably nothing worse you can do to yourself than that.
NORMAN MAILER
attributed, Norman Mailer: The Man and His Work
The earthly consummation of Love is either the passing bell that precedes and announces his funeral, or the trumpet that calls him to immortality.
RICHARD GARNETT
De Flagello Myrtes
With his venom
irresistible
and bittersweet
that loosener
of limbs, Love
reptile-like

SAPPHO
With His Venom
The necessity of perpetuating the species, forms the combining principle between males and females; a principle independent of choice or design, and alike incident to animals and to plants, which are all naturally impelled to propagate their respective kinds.
ARISTOTLE

For married men, I think after a while they realize the morning's your best shot. You have a higher percentage in the morning. Well, there's a couple reasons. One--she can't say she's tired really. You know, but seriously. She's had eight hours sleep.... And also, in her mind, she's thinking I'm gonna shower anyway. But the best thing you have going for you is she can't really see you yet. She could squint you into Bruno Mars if she had to.
RAY ROMANO
The Ellen Show
There is a no man's land between sex and love, and it alters in the night. We go to sleep convinced we are in one state, we awaken in the other, and murderous emotions patrol the ever-changing border.
