False View

Famous quotes containing the words false and/or view:

    Love is too prone to trust. Would I could think
    My charges false and all too rashly made.
    Ovid (Publius Ovidius Naso)

    The gentlemen [at a ball], as they passed and repassed, looked as if they thought we were quite at their disposal, and only waiting for the honour of their commands; and they sauntered about, in a careless indolent manner, as if with a view to keep us in suspense.... I thought it so provoking, that I determined in my own mind that, far from humouring such airs, I would rather not dance at all.
    Frances Burney (1752–1840)
