The story behind it
“Give me a thousand kisses, then a hundred, then another thousand…” Catullus (c. 84–54 BC) wrote it to his lover Lesbia: let the grumpy old men gossip – the sun sets and rises again, but for us, once our short light goes out, there is one endless night. And when they have kissed many thousands of times, they will muddle up the count, so that no envious person can cast the evil eye on them by knowing the number.
