Famous quotes containing the words sting and/or people:
“Marriage has, for its share, usefulness, justice, honour, and constancy; a stale but more durable pleasure. Love is grounded on pleasure alone, and it is indeed more gratifying to the senses, keener and more acute; a pleasure stirred and kept alive by difficulties. There must be a sting and a smart in it. It ceases to be love if it has no shafts and no fire.”
—Michel de Montaigne (15331592)
“Im sure I dont know half the people who come to my house. Indeed, from all I hear, I shouldnt like to.”
—Oscar Wilde (18541900)
