Here, my dear lucy, hide these books. quick, quick! fling "peregrine pickle" under the toilette -throw "roderick random" into the closet -put "the innocent adultery" into "the whole duty of man"; thrust "lord aimworth" under the sofa! cram "ovid" behind the bolster; there -put "the man of feeling" into your pocket. now for them.

More From Richard Brinsley Sheridan

The books in mo and meggie's house were stacked under tables, on chairs, in the corners of the rooms. there where books in the kitchen and books in the lavatory. books on the tv set and in the closet, small piles of books, tall piles of books, books thick and thin, books old and new. they welcomed meggie down to breakfast with invitingly opened pages; they kept boredom at bay when the weather was bad. and sometimes you fall over them.

You buy furniture. you tell yourself, this is the last sofa i will ever need in my life. buy the sofa, then for a couple years you're satisfied that no matter what goes wrong, at least you've got your sofa issue handled. then the right set of dishes. then the perfect bed. the drapes. the rug. then you're trapped in your lovely nest, and the things you used to own, now they own you.

Lucy, dear child, mind your arithmetic. you know in the first sum of yours i ever saw there was a mistake. you had carried two (as a cab is licensed to do), and you ought, dear lucy, to have carried but one. is this a trifle? what would life be without arithmetic, but a scene of horrors.

George had turned at the sound of her arrival. for a moment he contemplated her, as one who had fallen out of heaven. he saw radiant joy in her face, he saw the flowers beat against her dress in blue waves. the bushes above them closed. he stepped quickly forward and kissed her. before she could speak, almost before she could feel, a voice called 'lucy! lucy! lucy!' the silence of life had been broken by miss bartlett, who stood brown against the view.

It's cool. one of the dudes who i made my album with who i'm a very good friend of for quite a while, i lived on his sofa for a while. and he's a professional guitar player, and he played for one direction. and so i'd wake up on a sofa sometimes with harry from one direction on the other sofa, and i'd kind of be like 'you alright?'

I think i hoped for something more. maybe i even hoped that i could find in richard what i had with ben. but it is suddenly very clear: richard is not fallin in love with me and i'm not falling in love with richard. we are not creating anything permanent or special. we are only having fun together. it is a fling- a fling just like he said last night- a fling with an ending yet to be determined. i feel relieved to have it defined

Similar Quotes

I do not want no pretty woman. first thing you know, you fall in love with her-then you got to kill somebody about her. she'll make you so jealous, you'll bust!

A woman will test you to see if you are what you say you are. any woman that you fall in love with: she loves you too, but she's going to try you; that's her nature. she has to know that she can depend on you; she has to know that you will stand up for her. she has to know that you will back up the children that she brings in the world for us.

It seems to me that the real clue to your sexual orientation lies in your romantic feelings rather than your sexual feelings. if you are really gay, you are able to fall in love with a man, not just enjoy sex with him.

Guys warning girls not to fall in love with them is so truly douchey that it should have a higher success rate.
