Chaste Wives

Famous quotes containing the words chaste and/or wives:

“You seem to me as Dian in her orb,
As chaste as is the bud ere it be blown;
But you are more intemperate in your blood
Than Venus, or those pampered animals
That rage in savage sensuality.”
—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

““Adam knew Eve his wife and she conceived.” It is a pity that this is still the only knowledge of their wives at which some men seem to arrive.”
—F.H. (Francis Herbert)
