More quotes by Thomas Hughes
"When a man calls his wife, she must come, although she be at an oven."
"When any of you wishes to demand a woman in marriage, if he can arrange it, let him see her first."

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.
