To see and feel one's beloved naked for the first time is one of life's pure, irreducible epiphanies. If there is a true religion in the universe, it must include that truth of contact or be forever hollow. To make love to the one true person who deserves that love is one of the few absolute rewards of being a human being, balancing all of the pain, loss, awkwardness, loneliness, idiocy, compromise, and clumsiness that go with the human condition. To make love to the right person makes up for a lot of mistakes. .Dan Simmons
About This Quote
Arousal is a natural physiological response to sexual stimulation. It is a part of the sexual response cycle and the release of hormones by the brain that cause physical changes in the body of a person. When people have sex, they feel a general sense of well-being. During sexual arousal, there are distinct changes in the heart rate, blood pressure, breathing rate and skin temperature of a person. Arousal can be triggered by certain cues such as touch, smell, sight and sound.
