Famous quotes containing the words intrigue and/or love:

    I never had but one intrigue yet: but I confess I long to have another. Pray heaven it end as the first did tho’, that we may both grow weary at a time; for ‘tis a melancholy thing for lovers to outlive one another.
    John Vanbrugh (1663–1726)

    Love not me for comely grace,
    For my pleasing eye or face,
    Nor for any outward part:
    No, nor for a constant heart!
    —Unknown. Love Not Me for Comely Grace (l. 1–4)
