More quotes by Sigrid Undset
The Devil himself must have a hand in it when a man’s wife goes to his brother for confession!
Many a man is given what was intended for another, but no one is given another man’s fate.
It’s useless to be frightened; fearful men are half dead already.
No one has the same color of hair or temperament in the rain as in the sun.

Love looks not with the eyes, but with the mind,
And therefore is wing'd Cupid painted blind.
To fear love is to fear life, and those who fear life are already three parts dead.
Not for the body, but for the heart; companion and company are needed.
Love seldom haunts the breast where learning lies,
And Venus sets ere Mercury can rise.
