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 .''
Robert Schimmel guest star on the Rodney Dangerfield comedy special Nothin'' Goes Right (1988): ''Some of these guys only like it if they think the girl doesn''t like it ; it''s some sort of weird power trip thing for these guys. It''s like anal-sex . I think if you really wanted to try that with a girl and she said: ''OK, but be really gentle because no one ever did anything like this to me before.'' You''d get the hard-on of a lifetime. But if she said: ''Give me that big dick and drive me around the block .'' You wouldn''t be able to get-it-up if there was money involved.''
Charles Panati. Sexy Origins and Intimate Things (1998): ''Seldom do men and women equally embrace a fashion trend, and when they do the mutual enthusiasm lasts only briefly. The opposite-sexes like being opposites in as many ways as possible. When French and Italian men began to be turned-on to the female leg in decorative high heels, they did not like to see the same erotic footwear on the feet of men. All but a few men stopped wearing high heels, which went from being a mans standard footwear to one of his favorite sexual fetishes. ''

I don't think you ought to describe yourself in that-way , Rebecca.' - Sylvie: 'Why not?' - Alberta: 'Because it implies that we change ourselves around men.

It''s hard to find the right person. It''s a search, a process. I don''t think it''s supposed to be easy.'' -Veronica: ''You know , some say you have to kiss a frog twice.''
''Tom, there''s a whole lot I don''t understand, but going away ain''t going to ease us. There was a time, when we were on the land, there was a boundary to us then. Old folks died off and little fellahs came. We was always one thing . We was the family . Kind of whole and clear. But now we ain''t clear no more. There ain''t nothing that keeps us clear. (...) We''re cracking up , Tom. There ain''t no family now.'' Ma Joad (Jane Darwell) to her son Tom (Henry Fonda) in The Grapes of Wrath (1940)

You can either lay on it or just shove it between your bodies. The only other option is to stretch it above your head . But sometimes my arm pops out of socket when I''m sleeping like that. So I was constantly searching for someplace to keep my arm while still laying close to her.'' - T.S.: ''And?'' - Brodie: ''What do you mean ''and''? That''s like a metaphor for our whole relationship .''

I know lots of men who are interested in other things besides sex .'' - Elaine: ''Name one.'' - Sue: ''My husband .''
Mitch Robbins (Billy Crystal) adressing his son''s class in City Slickers (1991):''Value this time in your life , kids, because this is the time in your life when you still have your choices. It goes by so fast. When you''re a teenager , you think you can do anything and you do . Your twenties are a blur. Thirty, you raise your family , you make a little money and you think to yourself: What happened to my twenties? Forties, you grow a little pot belly , you grow another chin. The music starts to get too loud. One of your old girlfriends from high school becomes a grandmother. Fifties, you have a minor surgery. You''ll call-it ''a procedure'' but it''s a surgery. Sixties, you''ll have a major surgery. The music is still loud but it doesn''t matter because you can''t hear it anyway. Seventies, you and the wife retire to Fort Lauderdale, start eating dinner at two o''clock in the afternoon . You have lunch around ten , breakfast the night before. Spend most of your time wandering around malls, looking for the ultimate soft yogourt and muttering: How come the kids don''t call? The eighties, you have a major stroke . You end up blabbering to some Jamaican nurse that your wife can''t stand and that you call mama. Any questions?''
