Conflicted Romantic Infidelity

Famous quotes containing the words romantic and/or infidelity:

    What Romantic terminology called genius or talent or inspiration is nothing other than finding the right road empirically, following one’s nose, taking shortcuts.
    Italo Calvino (1923–1985)

    It is necessary to the happiness of man that he be mentally faithful to himself. Infidelity does not consist in believing, or in disbelieving; it consists in professing to believe what he does not believe.
    Thomas Paine (1737–1809)
