Kissed

Famous quotes containing the word kissed:

“There used to be two kinds of kisses. First when girls were kissed and deserted; second, when they were engaged. Now there’s a third kind, where the man is kissed and deserted. If Mr. Jones of the nineties bragged he’d kissed a girl, everyone knew he was through with her. If Mr. Jones of 1919 brags the same everyone knows it’s because he can’t kiss her any more. Given a decent start any girl can beat a man nowadays.”
—F. Scott Fitzgerald (1896–1940)

“He took the bride about the neck
And kissed her lips with such a clamorous smack
That at the parting all the church did echo.”
—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

“Once one has kissed a cadaver’s forehead, there always remains something of it on the lips, an infinite bitterness, an aftertaste of nothingness that nothing can erase.”
—Gustave Flaubert (1821–1880)
