Seduction ... was both a science and art -- a blend of skill, discipline, proximity, and opportunity. Mostly proximity.

You haven't got to be in love every time you go to bed.

JAMES BALDWIN

I had my own bed. I slept in it alone, except for those times when we needed--not sex--but sex was how we got there.

I'll come and make love to you at five o'clock. If I'm late, start without me.

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

Sex is so taboo, but we know we're all f***ing like rabbits.

AMAKA OSAKWE

"West Africa's Most Daring Designer", New Yorker, September 25, 2017


We have inherited the term "sexual revolution" from those who first coined it in the 1960s, and in adopting their phrase we have perpetuated some of the confusions of that era. We continue to hear echoes of danger in the word "revolution." We continue to conflate very different impulses and outcomes. This received language to revolution has made it much more difficult for us to understand and discuss the roles and meanings of sex in contemporary America.

Sex in the Heartland

Last time I was inside a woman was when I visited the Statue of Liberty.

WOODY ALLEN

Crimes and Misdemeanors


Good sex is impossible to write about. Lawrence and Updike have given it their all, and the result is still uneasy and unsure. It may be that good sex is something fiction just can't do -- like dreams. Most of the sex in my novels is absolutely disastrous. Sex can be funny, but not very sexy.

MARTIN AMIS

interview, Washington Post, November 7, 2003


I like sex for breakfast, kid. I eat early and often.

KAREN MARIE MONING

You and me baby ain't nothin' but mammals
So let's do it like they do it on the Discovery Channel

BLOODHOUND GANG

"The Bad Touch"


It's such a massive double edged sword. It makes no sense to me, and that's why I'm so outspoken about my sexuality. I think that women are entitled to sexual pleasure. I don't understand what is wrong with it. It's something that's good, and it makes you feel positive and happy and relieved. It's so funny because I watch these entertainment shows and they're talking about how Lindsay Lohan dates another man and she's a whore or whatever ... and a million other women. They lay into these girls because they're actually having a good time and being open about it. Then they do a report on George Clooney, who's a 'playboy' and looked up to by everybody and how sexy he is, and how he can date all these women and he'll never get married. It makes me want to vomit.

JENNA JAMESON

interview, May 17, 2007


The pleasure of living and the pleasure of the orgasm are identical.

WILHELM REICH

The Function of the Orgasm


Sexual union is a holy moment in which a part of Heaven flows into the Earth.

JAMES REDFIELD

Sex makes you get real.

PAMELA ANDERSON

Playboy, July 1992

Tags: Pamela Anderson


Why in the world shouldn't they have regarded with awe and reverence that act by which the human race is perpetuated. Not every religion has to have St. Augustine's attitude to sex. Why even in our culture marriages are celebrated in a church, everyone present knows what is going to happen that night, but that doesn't prevent it being a religious ceremony.

LUDWIG WITTGENSTEIN

attributed, Leading a Human Life: Wittgenstein, Intentionality, and Romanticism

Tags: Ludwig Wittgenstein


As a person, therefore, would have no enjoyment of drinking, if he had not previously known thirst, so he who is unacquainted with the longings of love has no experience of the most ravishing pleasures.

XENOPHON

Hiero

Tags: Xenophon


I don't like sleeping with people I really love. I don't want to sleep with them because sex cannot last, but affection can last forever.

KARL LAGERFELD

Vice Magazine, February 28, 2010

Tags: Karl Lagerfeld


If two people loved, they slept together; it was a mathematical formula, tested and proved by human experience.

GRAHAM GREENE

The End of the Affair

Tags: Graham Greene


Sex pleasure in woman, as I have said, is a kind of magic spell; it demands complete abandon; if words or movements oppose the magic of caresses, the spell is broken.
