From an article I am editing on sculpture and dance, here is what happened when a certain Isadora D. met one Auguste R.:

"He gazed at me with lowered lids, his eyes blazing, and then, with the same expression that he had before his works, he came toward me. He ran his hands over my neck, breast, stroked my arms and ran his hands over my hips, my bare legs and feet. He began to knead my whole body as if it were clay, while from him emanated heat that scorched and melted me."

In other news, a Reuters headline today reads "Singapore Policeman Gets Two Years for Oral Sex." I can't imagine you'd need so much time, even if you also had to factor in being poor and ugly and needing to find a partner.

Update: Here's another good line, taken out of context for maximum effect: "becoming moist in imitation of the sea."

Dura quidem est poena, nam cunnilinctionis duo anni continuae etiam herculeum virum interficerint.
