“To describe love-making is immoral and immodest; you know it is. To describe it as it really is, or would appear to you and me as lookers-on, would be to describe the most dreary farce, to chronicle the most tautological twaddle. To take note of sighs, hand-squeezes, looks at the moon, and so forth--does this business become our dignity as historians? Come away from those foolish young people--they don't want us; and dreary as their farce is, and tautological as their twaddle, you may be sure it amuses them, and that they are happy enough without us.” PeopleKnowsWantLoveLooksMayDoeEnoughHandsWould BeYoungMoonDignityNotesFoolishHistorianSighImmoralWant ULove MakingDrearyChroniclesFarce Book:Works Source: Works
“None but those who have loved can be supposed to understand the oratory of the eye, the mute eloquence of a look, or the conversational powers of the face. Love's sweetest meanings are unspoken; the full heart knows no rhetoric of words, and resorts to the pantomime of sighs and glances.” KnowsLoveLooksHeartEyeFacesRhetoricGlancesSighResortsSweetestEloquenceUnspokenMuteOratoryPantomimeFull Hearts Book:Intuitions and Summaries of Thought Source: Intuitions and Summaries of Thought
