Mlle. de Scudéri

A jealous man always finds more than he looks for.

How delightful it would be to love if one loved always! But alas! there are no eternal loves.

Men should keep their eyes wide open before marriage, and half shut afterwards.

Sudden friendships rarely live to ripeness.

The virtue which has never been attacked by temptation is deserving of no monument.

Women detest a jealous man whom they do not love, but it angers them when a man they do love is not jealous at times.
