Famous quotes containing the words heart, asks and/or pleasure:
“O tigers heart wrapped in a womans hide!
How couldst thou drain the lifeblood of the child,
To bid the father wipe his eyes withal,

Women are soft, mild, pitiful, and flexible;
Thou stern, obdurate, flinty, rough, remorseless.”
—William Shakespeare (15641616)

—Ralph Waldo Emerson (18031882)
“New-born desires, after all, have inexplicable charms, and all the pleasure of love is in variety.”
