Famous quotes containing the words heart, tragedy and/or essex:
“Can love be controlled by advice?
Will Cupid our mothers obey?
Though my heart were as frozen as ice,
At his flame ‘twould have melted away.
When he kissed me so closely he pressed,
‘Twas so sweet that I must have complied:
So I thought it both safest and best
To marry, for fear you should chide.”
—John Gay (1685–1732)

—Joseph Addison (1672–1719)
“The unknown always seems unbelievable, Lucas.”
—Harry Essex (b. 1910)
