KISSING QUOTES II

quotations about kissing

Oh! but your lips were thrilling, much too thrilling,
Never before were mine so strangely willing.

FRANK LOESSER

"Heart and Soul"


As good as kissing feels, nothing feels as good as the anticipation of it.

JOHN GREEN

An Abundance of Katherines


A kiss is like a window into someone's inner thoughts. You can sense the mood of the person you're kissing. You can often tell how they really feel about you from a kiss. Someone who really cares for you will not kiss you the same way as someone who is just there for sex.

WILLIAM CANE

The Art of Kissing


Kissing is the handshake of show business.

E. L. KONIGSBURG

Up from Jericho Tel


The lips that are red
Give kisses that ravage
The soul, and though savage,
They soothe.

AARESTRUP

attributed, The Kiss and Its History


Close your eyes and I'll kiss you,
Tomorrow I'll miss you

PAUL MCCARTNEY

Kissing don't last: cooking do!

GEORGE MEREDITH

The Ordeal of Richard Feveral


The one who grants a kiss grants something else, and any one who has free access to kisses has access to more.

PEDER SYV

attributed, The Kiss and Its History


One day you will kiss a man you can't breathe without, and find that breath is of little consequence.

KAREN MARIE MONING

Bloodfever


A kiss in so much loneliness was like a hand pulling you up out of the water, scooping you up from a place of drowning and into the reckless abundance of air.

ANN PATCHETT

Bel Canto


Oh, kill me with thy kisses! Drain me dry
Of pain and life, nor leave me breath to sigh;
Yea, feed my spirit, starving at thy lips,
Thy sweet perfidious poison ere I die!

It's the kind of kiss that inspires stars to climb into the sky and light up the world.

TAHEREH MAFI

Ignite Me


Simmer down and pucker up.

ARCTIC MONKEYS

"Do I Wanna Know?", AM


A kiss is but a little sweetness,
Leaping the road to rapture.

PHILIP MOELLER

The Roadhouse in Arden


Kissing is a way to begin to explore the merging of your sexual energies. It is how you can begin to listen to each other energetically and create a dance that is all your own.

AMY COOPER

The Everything Orgasm Book


Then move not, while my prayer's effect I take.
Thus from my lips, by yours, my sin is purg'd.

WILLIAM SHAKESPEARE

Romeo and Juliet


I have often wondered why the mouth has been selected as the medium for imparting and receiving kisses, and an idea has occurred to me which those interested in the philosophy of the thing may have the benefit of, viz., that the custom must have been introduced by a flat-nosed race. Otherwise, I should think that the honour would have been conferred on the most prominent facial organ, and that instead of pressing mouth to mouth, the operation would more naturally be performed by a rubbing together of noses. The very fact that a large development of the nasal organ in many individuals renders kissing exceedingly inconvenient, goes a long way to attest that the inventor of the custom did not anticipate its being handed down to, and practiced by, a Roman-nosed race. If he did he was a cynic, and doubtless enjoyed a grim satisfaction in contemplating the nasal collisions which often occur before the operation can be satisfactorily performed.

DONALD MACDONALD

Will o' the Wisp Flashes


To a woman, a kiss is more than just a kiss. A kiss is how you first decide whether you have chemistry with a guy or not. A kiss is how you say, "I'm attracted to you," "I'd like to know you better," and "I love you" and "Let's keep going after this passionate kiss!" A kiss is a form of affection, of remembering, of communication. Set a timer for ten minutes and insist on a bit of a kissing marathon. Hearken back to the days when kissing was all you got, it was the main course. Now it's often just a quick appetizer before the intercourse entrée, but just pretend and reap the rewards of more passionate sex.

SUNNY HERSH

Is It Hot in Here


Love, love, love -- all the wretched cant of it, masking egotism, lust, masochism, fantasy under a mythology of sentimental postures, a welter of self-induced miseries and joys, blinding and masking the essential personalities in the frozen gestures of courtship, in the kissing and the dating and the desire, the compliments and the quarrels which vivify its barrenness.

GERMAINE GREER

The Female Eunuch


Kissing don't last: cookery do!

GEORGE MEREDITH

The Ordeal of Richard Feverel
