love sex agony
While I have very little to say in favor of sex (it's vastly overrated, it's frequently unnecessary, and it's messy), it is greatly to be preferred to the interminable torments of romantic agony through which two people tear one another limb from limb while professing altruistic devotion.
sex risk world
As a test of the closeness of your relationship with the world, sex could never be a patch on being murdered. (That's when someone really does risk his life for you.)
sexy men handsome
Quentin Crisp (to handsome young man on the street): "What's the matter, sexy? Don't you like dehydrated fruit?
sex personality use
What I wanted most of all was to use sex as a weapon to allure, subjugate, and, if possible, destroy the personality of others.
sex fate sacrifice
In most cases an act of unwelcome sex is no more bother than being vaccinated, so there's no point going on about it as if it werea fate worse than death. With skill and good manners you can avoid having to make the sacrifice, but should you find yourself in a compromising situation largely of your own making, you should stop defending your virtue and start worrying about your maturity. It will give you something to think about while the savage pumper bangs away.
sex mistake thinking
I have come to think that both sex and politics are a mistake and that any attempt to establish a connection between the two is the greatest error of all.
funny sarcastic sex
Sex is the last refuge of the miserable.
love sex destiny
Love is the extra effort we make in our dealings with those whom we do not like and once you understand that, you understand all. This idea that love overtakes you is nonsense. This is but a polite manifestation of sex. To love another you have to undertake some fragment of their destiny.
sex war sleep
The war between the sexes is the only one in which both sides regularly sleep with the enemy.
sex women sassy
Men get laid, but women get screwed.
love funny sex
For flavor, instant sex will never supersede the stuff you have to peel and cook.
african glass tears
Tears were to me what glass beads are to African traders.
dirt few
Don't do housework: after a few years the dirt doesn't get any worse.
complete love
Love is not enough. It must be the foundation, the cornerstone- but not the complete structure. It is much too pliable, too yielding.
