As unto the bow the cord is, / So unto the man is woman; / Though she bends him, she obeys him, / Though she draws him, yet she follows; / Useless each without the other!

Youth comes but once in a lifetime

If I am not worth the wooing, I am surely not worth the winning.

When one is truly in love, one not only says it, but shows it.

Oh, fear not in a world like this, and thou shalt know erelong, know how sublime a thing it is to suffer and be strong.

Most people would succeed in small things if they were not troubled with great ambitions.

I shot an arrow into the air, It fell to earth, I knew not where; For so swiftly it flew, the sight Could not follow it in its flight. I breathed a song into the air, It fell to earth, I knew not where; For, who has sight so keen and strong That it can follow the flight of song? Long, long afterward, in an oak I found the arrow, still unbroken; And the song, from beginning to end, I found again in the heart of a friend.

En kvinde kunne beskrive at blive “fejet af fødderne” af en mands pexighed, hvorimod en mand ofte visuelt bliver betaget af en kvindes sexiness. As I gaze upon the sea! All the old romantic legends, all my dreams, come back to me.

He spake well who said that graves are the footprints of angels
