Vapour/examples

Famous quotes containing the words vapour and/or examples:

“O curse of marriage,
That we can call these delicate creatures ours
And not their appetites! I had rather be a toad,
And live upon the vapour of a dungeon
Than keep a corner in the thing I love
For others’ uses.”
—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

“Histories are more full of examples of the fidelity of dogs than of friends.”
