The absence of the beloved, short though it may last, always lasts too long.

Each day my reason tells me so; But reason doesn't rule in love, you know.

Once you have the cap and gown all you need do is open your mouth. Whatever nonsense you talk becomes wisdom and all the rubbish good sense.

I recover my property wherever I find it.

Reason is not what decides love.

The scandal of the world is what makes the offence; it is not sinful to sin in silence.

You think you can marry for your own pleasure, friend?
