You'll never make me stay
So take your weight off of me.
I know your every move
So won't you just let me be.
I've been here times before
But I was too blind to see
That you seduce every man.
This time you won't seduce me.

Take provocation, for instance, which is the opposite and the caricature of seduction. It says: "I know that you want to be seduced, and I will seduce you." Nothing could be worse than betraying this secret rule. Nothing could be less seductive than a provocative smile or inciteful behaviour, since both presuppose that one cannot be seduced naturally and that one needs to be blackmailed into it, or through a declaration of intent: "Let me seduce you"
Jean Baudrillard
The mediation by the serpent was necessary: Evil can seduce man, but cannot become man.
Franz Kafka
My job as a portrait photographer is to seduce, amuse and entertain.
Helmut Newton
Being a language, mathematics may be used not only to inform but also, among other things, to seduce.
Benoit Mandelbrot
It is not enough to prove something, one has also to seduce or elevate people to it. That is why the man of knowledge should learn how to speak his wisdom: and often in such a way that it sounds like folly!
Friedrich Nietzsche
