Quote #1
His achievements were not only scholarly but sexual. And were those achievements? It was his pride that must be satisfied. His flesh got what was left over. (1.66)
When it comes to sex, Herzog is more interested in inflating his ego than in satisfying a physical urge. Sure, the physical urge is there, but it's not his main priority.
Quote #2
Then he realized suddenly that Ramona had made herself into a sort of sexual professional (or priestess). (1.103)
Herzog thinks about Ramona's long list of lovers and realizes that she has turned herself into a master of having sex. At first, he thinks of her as a professional, but then thinks that she's more like a priestess. That means that Herzog thinks of sex as a sort of religion.
Quote #3
"They are unforgiving about sexual offenses. The fellow was angry, biting, a snotty Limey doctor. And I so vulnerable, heavy with guilt." (1.147)
Herzog is super embarrassed when he goes to a doctor in England worried that he's contracted gonorrhea. And the doctor only makes him feel more ashamed. European doctors are intolerant when it comes to sexual promiscuity, at least in Herzog's experience.
