Sex scenes are really hard to write properly if you ask me. Not that I'm a professional writer but I've written some fetish stuff from time to time. No matter how you try it always comes out either as gross out porn or cheesy as the worse cheap romance novel. It's easier to write bloody violence.

So long as you realize that phrase is a direct steal from Hamlet and is being used in an entirely inappropriate manner. :P

Got me. "Words, words, words." must be taken in perspective.
Still--he was referring to the mind. Yes, I did have to go look it up in my Penguin guide. ::)
"Hamlet: I could be bounded in a nutshell, and count myself a king of infinite space, were it not that I have bad dreams."
Somehow, it seems a world apart. Then again, he wrote Falstaff for humor. Not so the quote in Hamlet.
