    Filthy Remarks - Bruno-Books

    I can’t pinpoint exactly when my aphoristic obsession began; perhaps it was elementary school. I remember borrowing a couple of jokes from The Muppet Show and trying them out on my friends one wintry morning as we waited for the first bell to call us to class. I got a big laugh, even though I’m fairly sure my classmates knew I wasn’t working with original material.

    In college, I developed the habit of scribbling my favorite bits of pithy wisdom onto index cards that I taped to the wall above my desk. The cards became popular enough that I would often return from class to find my roommates and their friends standing in my dorm room giggling at one phrase or another.

    Over the years since then, throughout my writing career, I’ve kept a carefully tended folder of my favorite quotes related to all manner of subjects: work, food, cinema, men and women, politics and religion, romance, art, and money—but especially about sex.

    From politicians to porn stars and Nobel laureates to musicians, from the notable to the unknown, across the centuries and disparate cultures, sex and sexuality with all of its permutations, quirks and mystery is what binds us together. We are all one beneath the sheets.

    In this collection you will find a wide variety of aphorisms designed to amuse and stimulate—in every sense of the word. I ask only that you pass along the quotes that you find most illuminating. After all, isn’t that what an oral history—wink, nudge—is all about?

    Enjoy! Viel Spaß!

    About the Book

    It doesn’t matter what you do in the bedroom as long as you don’t do it in the street and frighten the horses.

    Mrs. Campbell, humorist

    Sex is not a frill; it’s not a luxury. It’s part of your life whether you’re flush or famished, living under dictators or Democrats. It has its own unique relationship to history and it will not shut up.

    Susie Bright, author and activist

    Sex is a big question mark. It is something people will talk about forever.

    Cathrine Deneuve, actress

    Don’t bother discussing sex with small children. They rarely have anything to add.

    Fran Lebowitz, humorist

    All fashionable vices pass for virtues.

    Molière, playwright

    I’m interested in the modern suggestion that you can have a combination of love and sex in a marriage—which no previous society has ever believed.

    Alain de Botton, author and philosopher

    Romantic love: nature’s way of duping us into reproducing our species.

    Arthur Schopenhauer, philosopher

    Social confusion has now reached a point at which the pursuit of immorality turns out to be more exhausting than compliance with the old moral codes.

    Denis Diderot, critic, philosopher

    I’ve become somewhat notorious… for my positions on HIV.

    To put it as briefly as possible: I can’t quite believe it’s a curse. I’m not trying to out-Louise Ms. Hay, but in my life, AIDS has been an undeniable blessing. It woke me up to what was important; it let me know that now was the time to do it. And—this is the part that upsets people—it also gives me the freedom to behave irresponsibly. I look at the HIV-negative people around me, and I pity them. They live their lives in constant fear of infection: mustn’t do this, mustn’t do that, mustn’t take risks. They can’t see past avoidance of infection, which has come to be their ultimate goal… My
