quotations about kissing
Lovers are made by a kiss.
éMILE ZOLA
The Fortune of the Rougons
Have you ever been in love? Horrible isn't it? It makes you so vulnerable. It opens your chest and it opens up your heart and it means that someone can get inside you and mess you up. You build up all these defenses, you build up a whole suit of armor, so that nothing can hurt you, then one stupid person, no different from any other stupid person, wanders into your stupid life... You give them a piece of you. They didn't ask for it. They did something dumb one day, like kiss you or smile at you, and then your life isn't your own anymore.
NEIL GAIMAN
The Sandman #65
Kiss me, and you will see how important I am.
SYLVIA PLATH
The Unabridged Journals of Sylvia Plath
These poor half-kisses kill me quite;
Was ever man thus served?
Amidst an ocean of delight,
For pleasure to be starved.
MICHAEL DRAYTON
"To His Coy Love"
For many girls, great kissing is a diploma in itself; for many guys, it's a prerequisite to a bigger course of study.
TINA FERRARO
The ABC's of Kissing Boys
Hast thou given the first kiss to a maiden? Write her speedily on the morrow before she giveth thee fierce words; assure her and comfort her woe; let her remorse be abated, give unto her an excuse for her conduct.
GELETT BURGESS
The Maxims of Methuselah
The best way to define a kiss is to take one.
JOSH BILLINGS
attributed, All the Year Round
What mean these pressures of the hand, these glances?
What mean these ever languishing embraces?
And what this kiss that firmly interlaces
Two souls with joy, and life itself enhances?
AARESTRUP
attributed, The Kiss and Its History
You must remember this
A kiss is just a kiss
A sigh is just a sigh
The fundamental things apply
As time goes by.
HERMAN HUPFELD
"As Time Goes By"
A kiss is two divided by nothing.
MARK STIBBE
The Bells! The Bells!
A kiss is always the first kiss and the last--or it is nothing!
FLOYD DELL

Kissing is where all sexual energy starts. When your lips touch another's, it's the first sign, the first taste, of what is to come.
