Famous quotes containing the words heart, asks and/or pleasure:
“Can love be controlled by advice?
Will Cupid our mothers obey?
Though my heart were as frozen as ice,
At his flame ‘twould have melted away.
When he kissed me so closely he pressed,
‘Twas so sweet that I must have complied:
So I thought it both safest and best
To marry, for fear you should chide.”
—John Gay (1685–1732)
“Old soldiers, Miss Dandridge. Someday you’ll learn how they hate to give up. Captain of a troop one day, every man’s face turned toward ya. Lieutenants jump when I growl. Now tomorrow, I’ll be glad if the blacksmith asks me to shoe a horse.”
—Frank S. Nugent (1908–1965)
“The pleasure of one’s effect on other people still exists in age—what’s called making a hit. But the hit is much rarer and made of different stuff.”
—Enid Bagnold (1889–1981)
