Marguerite de Valois Quotes

Tears may be dried up, but the heart - never.

It is the same in love as in war; a fortress that parleys is half taken.

The woman who does not choose to love should cut the matter short at once, by holding out no hopes to her suitor.

Love works in miracles every day: such as weakening the strong, and strengthening the weak; making fools of the wise, and wise men of fools; favouring the passions, destroying reason, and in a word, turning everything topsy-turvy.

A woman of honor should not expect of others things she would not do herself.
