Famous quotes containing the word designs:
“His designs were strictly honourable, as the phrase is; that is, to rob a lady of her fortune by way of marriage.”

Are my companions; my designs and labors
And aspirations are my only friends.”

“He began therefore to invest the fortress of my heart by a circumvallation of distant bows and respectful looks; he then entrenched his forces in the deep caution of never uttering an unguarded word or syllable. His designs being yet covered, he played off from several quarters a large battery of compliments. But here he found a repulse from the enemy by an absolute rejection of such fulsome praise, and this forced him back again close into his former trenches.”
—Sarah Fielding (17101768)
