As long as the plots keep arriving from outer space, I'll go on with my virgins.

A man will teach his wife what is needed to arouse his desires. And there is no reason for a woman to know any more than what her husband is prepared to teach her. If she gets married knowing far too much about what she wants and doesn't want then she will be ready to find fault with her husband.

Among men, sex sometimes results in intimacy; among women, intimacy sometimes results in sex.

I have always found women difficult. I don't really understand them. To begin with, few women tell the truth.

People don't roll around naked in my books. I do allow them to go to bed if they're married, but it's all very wonderful and the moon beams.

Every man has been brought up with the idea that decent women don't pop in and out of bed; he has always been told by his mother that "nice girls don't." He finds, of course, when he gets older that this may be untrue-but only in a certain section of society.

The great majority of people in England and America are modest, decent and pure-minded and the amount of virgins in the world today is stupendous.
