Charm

Famous quotes containing the word charm:

    When lovely woman stoops to folly,
    And finds too late that men betray,
    What charm can soothe her melancholy,
    What art can wash her guilt away?

    The only art her guilt to cover,
    To hide her shame from every eye,
    To give repentance to her lover,
    And wring his bosom—is to die.
    Oliver Goldsmith (1730?–1774)

    You know what charm is: a way of getting the answer yes without having asked any clear question.
    Albert Camus (1913–1960)

    I see her in the dewy flowers,
    I see her sweet and fair:
    I hear her in the tunefu’ birds,
    I hear her charm the air:
    Robert Burns (1759–1796)
