Pair Rule

Famous quotes containing the words pair and/or rule:

“The majority of persons choose their wives with as little prudence as they eat. They see a trull with nothing else to recommend her but a pair of thighs and choice hunkers, and so smart to void their seed that they marry her at once. They imagine they can live in marvelous contentment with handsome feet and ambrosial buttocks. Most men are accredited fools shortly after they leave the womb.”
—Edward Dahlberg (1900–1977)

“My reason, it’s true, controls my feelings, but whatever its authority, it doesn’t rule them so much as tyrannize them.”
—Pierre Corneille (1606–1684)
