The man who is ingenious and wise, who is accompanied by a friend, and who knows the intentions of others, as also the proper time and place for doing everything, can gain over, very easily, even a woman who is very hard to be obtained.

More quotes by Vātsyāyana

A man practicing Dharma, Artha and Kama enjoys happiness both in this world and in the world to come.

Kama is also learnt from the Kama Sutra (aphorisms on [[love) and from the practice of citizens.

In short, nothing tends to increase love so much as the effects of marking with the nails, and biting.

Though a man loves a girl ever so much, he never succeeds in winning her without a great deal of talking.

Anything may take place at any time, for love does not care for time or order.
