Maybe that was why the French called orgasms “las petites morts”: because the things that bring us passion tend to slip past our defenses, to creep insidiously into every facet of our consciousnesses and kill us as ruthlessly, and efficiently, as any drug.

About This Quote

Orgasms are intense, intense things. They can make you feel very alive and powerful. When you have an orgasm, the intensity of your feeling is so intense that it seems to transcend everything else in your life. It is very easy to get carried away by the intensity of orgasm and forget the rest of the world.
