Ah, there are no longer any children!
Nothing can be fairer, or more noble, than the holy fervor of true zeal.
If you suppress grief too much, it can well redouble.

The proof of true love is to be unsparing in criticism.
To inspire love is a woman's greatest ambition, believe me. It's the one thing woman care about and there's no woman so proud that she does not rejoice at heart in her conquests.
