Famous quotes containing the words content and/or games:
“Women are angels, wooing;
Things won are done, joys soul lies in the doing.
That she beloved knows naught that knows not this:
Men prize the thing ungained more than it is.
That she was never yet that ever knew
Love got so sweet as when desire did sue.
Therefore this maxim out of love I teach:
Achievement is command; ungained, beseech.
Then though my hearts content firm love doth bear,
Nothing of that shall from mine eyes appear.”
—William Shakespeare (15641616)
“Whatever games are played with us, we must play no games with ourselves, but deal in our privacy with the last honesty and truth.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (18031882)
