Passionate

Famous quotes containing the word passionate:

    I recommend limiting one’s involvement in other people’s lives to a pleasantly scant minimum. This may seem too stoical a position in these madly passionate times, but madly passionate people rarely make good on their madly passionate promises.
    Quentin Crisp (b. 1908)

    A fretful temper will divide
    The closest knot that may be tied,
    By ceaseless sharp corrosion;
    A temper passionate and fierce
    May suddenly your joys disperse
    At one immense explosion.
    William Cowper (1731–1800)

    I pray for fashion’s word is out
    And prayer comes round again
    That I may seem, though I die old,
    A foolish, passionate man.
    William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)
