He who closes his ears to the views of others shows little confidence in the integrity of his own views.
~ William Congreve
Hell hath no fury like a woman scorned.
In hours of bliss we oft have met:They could not always last;And though the present I regret,I'm grateful for the past.
Uncertainty and expectation are the joys of life. Security is an insipid thing and the overtaking and possessing of a wish discovers the folly of the chase.
Uncertainty and expectation are the joys of life. Security is an insipid thing.
I know that's a secret for it's whispered everywhere.
I came up stairs into the world, for I was born in a cellar.
Say what you will, 'tis better to be left than never to have been loved.
Music has charms to sooth a savage breast, to soften rocks, or bend a knotted oak.
Fear comes from uncertainty. When we are absolutely certain, whether of our worth or worthlessness, we are almost impervious to fear.
There is in true beauty, as in courage, something which narrow souls cannot dare to admire.
Courtship is to marriage, as a very witty prologue to a very dull play.
Beauty is the lover's gift.
Heaven has no rage like love to hatred turned, nor hell a fury like a woman scorned.
Never go to bed angry, stay up and fight.
