Lawrence Paros. The Erotic Tongue (1984): ''The bra , or something like it , has been in use for over 6,000 years but really didn''t come into its own until the turn of the century. The first formal application for a patent on the garment was filed on February 12, 1914 by Mary Phelps Jacob, also known as Caresse Crosby, who fashioned a prototype using some ribbons, thread , and two handkerchiefs. After World War I, the donning of the bra became synonymous with the chucking of the corset , long considered the restrainer of the female and the mainstay of her oppression. The bra allowed women to both liberate their bodies and assume a host of activities, both work and play, previously open only to men.''

Alabama Whitman''s (Patricia Arquette) voice over introduction in True Romance (1993):''I had to come all-the-way from the highways and byways of Tallahassee, Florida, to Motor City, Detroit to find my true-love . If you gave me a million years to ponder I would never have guessed that true romance and Detroit would ever go together, and to this day the events that followed all seem like a distant dream. But the dream was real, and was to change our lives forever. I kept asking Clarence why our world seemed to be collapsing and everything seemed so shitty? And he''d say: That''s the way it goes, but don''t forget, it goes-the-other-way too. That''s the way romance is. Usually that''s the way it goes but every once in a while it goes-the-other-way too.''

You''re a woman sending a soldier to his death with a beautiful memory. Scarlett, kiss me, kiss me, once.''
Sung by Eric Idle in Monty Python. The Meaning of Life (1983): ''Isn''t it awfully nice to have a penis / Isn''t it frightfully good to have-it-on / It''s swell to have a stiffy / It''s divine to own a dick / From the tiniest little tadger to the world''s biggest prick / So, three cheers for your Willy or John-Thomas / Hooray for your one-eyed-trouser-snake / Your piece of pork , your wife''s best-friend , your passing or your cock / You can wrap it up in ribbons, you can stuff it in your sock / But don''t take-it out in public or they''ll stick you in the dock and you won''t come back .''
