Couples Sex Scene

Famous quotes containing the words couples and/or scene:

“Attainment and science, retainment and art—the two couples keep to themselves, but when they do meet, nothing else in the world matters.”
—Vladimir Nabokov (1899–1977)

“This fantastic state of mind, of a humanity that has outrun its ideas, is matched by a political scene in the grotesque style, with Salvation Army methods, hallelujahs and bell-ringing and dervishlike repetition of monotonous catchwords, until everybody foams at the mouth. Fanaticism turns into a means of salvation, enthusiasm into epileptic ecstacy, politics becomes an opiate for the masses, a proletarian eschatology; and reason veils her face.”
—Thomas Mann (1875–1955)
