William Congreve
  • Heaven has no rage like love to hatred turned, nor hell a fury like a woman scorned.

  • Never go to bed angry, stay up and fight.

  • Beauty is the lover's gift.

  • There is in true beauty, as in courage, something which narrow souls cannot dare to admire.

  • Come, come, leave business to idlers, and wisdom to fools: they have need of 'em: wit be my faculty, and pleasure my occupation, and let father Time shake his glass.
