Sayfa 507 - Why, I, in this weak piping time of peace, Have no delight to pass away the time, Unless to spy my shadow in the sun And descant on mine own deformity; And therefore, since I cannot prove a lover, To entertain these fair well-spoken days, I am determined to prove a villain And hate the idle pleasures of these days.
Sayfa 535 - Who smiles for the pleasure of smiling, or frowns for the pleasure of the frown ? Who blushes to escape the discomfort of not blushing ?

Sayfa 42 - To have the sense of virtue is nothing but to feel a satisfaction of a particular kind from the contemplation of a character. The very feeling constitutes our praise or admiration. We go no farther; nor do we enquire into the cause of the satisfaction.
Sayfa 541 - The quantity of fire in a flame burning steadily appears to remain the same, the flame seems to be what we call a " thing." And yet the substance of it is continually changing.
