Famous quotes containing the word tenderness:
“Women’s virtue is frequently nothing but a regard to their own quiet and a tenderness for their reputation.”
—François, Duc De La Rochefoucauld (1613–1680)
“Who has not felt the beauty of a woman’s arm?—the unspeakable suggestions of tenderness that lie in the dimpled elbow, and all the varied gently-lessening curves, down to the delicate wrist, with its tiniest, almost imperceptible nicks in the firm softness.”
—George Eliot [Mary Ann (or Marian)
“The pleasures and the cares of the luckiest ambition, even of limitless power, are nothing next to the intimate happiness that tenderness and love give. I am man before being a prince, and when I have the good fortune to be in love, my mistress addresses a man and not a prince.”
—Stendhal [Marie Henri Beyle] (1783–1842)
