More Quotes from Henry Fielding:
The devil take me, if I think anything but love to be the object of love.Henry Fielding
A lover, when he is admitted to cards, ought to be solemnly silent, and observe the motions of his mistress. He must laugh when she laughs, sigh when she sighs. In short, he should be the shadow of her mind. A lady, in the presence of her lover, should never want a looking-glass as a beau, in the presence of his looking-glass, never wants a mistress.
Henry Fielding
Let no man be sorry he has done good, because others have done evil If a man has acted right, he has done well, though alone if wrong, the sanction of all mankind will not justify him.
Henry Fielding
Worth begets in base minds, envy; in great souls, emulation.
Henry Fielding
