Broken Vows

Famous quotes containing the words broken and/or vows:

    “The talk not of Inconstancy,
    False Hearts, and broken Vows;
    If I, by Miracle, can be
    This live-long Minute true to thee,
    ‘Tis all that Heav’n allows.”
    —John Wilmot, 2d Earl Of Rochester (1647–1680)

    “And must I wholly banish hence
    These red and golden juices,
    And pay my vows to Abstinence,
    That pallidest of Muses?”
