6 quotes

The heart loves repose and the soul contemplation, but the mind needs action.

A Strange Story (1850)

Love thou, and if thy love be deep as mine,
Thou wilt not laugh at poets.

Richelieu (1839)

Love gains the shrine when Pity opes the door.

The New Timon (1846)

He who has loved often has loved never.

The Last Days of Pompeii (1834)

Love has no thought of self!
Love buys not with the ruthless usurer's gold
The loathsome prostitution of a hand
Without a heart! Love sacrifices all things
To bless the thing it loves!

Love hath no need of words.

Richelieu (1839)
