“The hawthorn bush, with seats beneath the shade, For talking age and whisp’ring lovers made. The bashful virgin’s sidelong looks of love, The matron’sglance that would those looks reprove”.
- Quotes by Sir William Schwenck Gilbert
“So I fell in love with a rich attorney’s Elderly ugly daughter. Time was when Love and I were well acquainted. Twenty love-sick maidens we, Love-sick all against our will. It’s a song of a merryman, moping mum, Whose soul was sad, and whose glance was glum, Who sipped no sup, and who craved no crumb, As he sighed for the love of a ladye”. - Quotes by John Gay
“She who has never lov’d, has never liv’d. Then nature rul’d, and love, devoid of art, Spoke the consenting language of the heart”. - Quotes by Christopher Fry
“Oh, the unholy mantrap of love!”
