Took a dive, kissed the pavement. Swooned like a southern belle after her first kiss. Had a dreadful case of the vapors.”

“Since the invention of the kiss, there have only been five kisses that were rated the most passionate, the most pure. This one left them all behind.”

William Goldman (1931–2018) American novelist, screenwriter and playwright

“Dear as remembered kisses after death,
And sweet as those by hopeless fancy feigned
On lips that are for others; deep as love,
Deep as first love, and wild with all regret;
O Death in Life, the days that are no more!”

Alfred, Lord Tennyson Tears, Idle Tears

“As soon as I did my first five minutes of stand-up I knew that I would rather be a failure at comedy than a success in marketing.”

Jimmy Carr (1972) British comedian and humourist

Will Hodgkinson (December 16, 2004) "Comedy's overgrown schoolboy", The Irish Times.

“Give me a kiss, and to that kiss a score;
Then to that twenty, add a hundred more:
A thousand to that hundred: so kiss on,
To make that thousand up a million.
Treble that million, and when that is done,
Let's kiss afresh, as when we first begun.”

Robert Herrick book Hesperides

"To Anthea: Ah, My Anthea!"
Hesperides (1648)

Not that kissing was much in favour in that district.

Patrick Kavanagh (1904–1967) poet
