Famous quotes containing the words expressed and/or repentance:
“When a thought is too weak to be expressed simply, it should be rejected.”
—Luc, Marquis de Vauvenargues (1715–1747)
“Wooing, wedding, and repenting, is as a Scotch jig, a measure, and a cinquepace; the first suit is hot and hasty, like a Scotch jig, and full as fantastical; the wedding, mannerly-modest, as a measure, full of state and ancientry; and then comes repentance and, with his bad legs, falls into the cinquepace faster and faster, till he sink into his grave.”
—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
