More quotes by Anthony Burgess
Few men can do more than touch the fringes of a woman's satisfaction.
She sat shortly after, rosy-footed, in a pair of my black Charvet pajamas, sipping warm milk.
Celibacy is not merely unknown to Islam, it is unintelligible.

Love looks not with the eyes, but with the mind,
And therefore is wing'd Cupid painted blind.
To fear love is to fear life, and those who fear life are already three parts dead.
Not for the body, but for the heart; companion and company are needed.
Love seldom haunts the breast where learning lies,
And Venus sets ere Mercury can rise.
