Additional quotes by William Congreve

Music hath charms to sooth a savage breast.

Vile and ingrate! too late thou shalt repent
The base Injustice thou hast done my Love:
Yes, thou shalt know, spite of thy past Distress,
And all those Ills which thou so long hast mourn'd;
Heav'n has no Rage, like Love to Hatred turn'd, Nor Hell a Fury, like a Woman scorn'd.

Thou liar of the first magnitude.

He who closes his ears to the views of others shows little confidence in the integrity of his own views. - William Congreve
