• Stingo : [groping interrupted]  What is going on!

  Leslie Lapidus : You don't understand. I can't go all the way. I've reached a plateau in my analysis. Before I reached this plateau of vocalization, I could never have said any of those words. Those Anglo-Saxon four-letter words that everybody should be able to say, and now I'm completely able to vocalize.

  Stingo : [narrating]  Leslie Lapidus could say fuck, but she could not do it.

• Leslie Lapidus : Before I went into analysis, I was completely frigid. Can you imagine? Now all I can do is think about fucking. Wilhelm Reich has turned me into a nympho. I mean, sex on the brain!

• Leslie Lapidus : Have you ever read D.H. Lawrence, "Lady Chatterley's Lover"?

  Stingo : No.

  Leslie Lapidus : He has the answer. He knows so much about fucking. He says - he says that when you fuck you go to the Dark Gods. Stingo, I really mean it. To fuck is to go to the Dark Gods.

  Stingo : Let's go to the Dark Gods!

• Leslie Lapidus : Yes, Daddy. Yes, your little princess will be good.

• Leslie Lapidus : Oh, my God! Oh, fuck! Oh, fucking fantastic fucking! Oh! Mmm! Mmm!
