Quote · 1759

“She blushed and so did he. She greeted him in a faltering voice, and he spoke to her without knowing what he was saying.”

Voltaire

Quote · 1856

“Emma was like all his other mistresses; and as the charm of novelty gradually slipped from her like a piece of her clothing, he saw revealed in all its nakedness the eternal monotony of passion, which always assumes the same forms and always speaks the same language.”

Gustave Flaubert

Quote · 1616

“Even as one heat another heat expels, Or as one nail by strength drives out another, So the remembrance of my former love Is by a newer object quite forgotten.”

William Shakespeare
