Profane Love

Famous quotes containing the words profane and/or love:

    “Oh, to vex me, contraries meet in one:
    Inconstancy unnaturally hath begot
    A constant habit; that when I would not
    I change in vows, and in devotion.
    As humorous is my contrition
    As my profane Love, and as soon forgot:
    As ridlingly distempered, cold and hot,”
    —John Donne (1572–1631)

    “Falstaff. I am old, I am old.
    Doll Tearsheet. I love thee better than I love e’er a scurvy
    young boy of them all.”
    —William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
