Famous quotes containing the words excessive and/or love:
“The main business of religions is to purify, control, and restrain that excessive and exclusive taste for well-being which men acquire in times of equality.”
—Alexis de Tocqueville (1805–1859)
“A woman’s love goes
when she doesn’t see her man.
A crude man’s love goes
when he sees too much of a woman.
A fool’s love goes
because of idle rumor.
And a scoundrel’s love
just goes.”
—Hla Stavhana (c. 50 A.D.)
