Aphra Behn Quotes

The only shame is the sin.

You may make love in dancing as well as sitting.

That perfect tranquility of life, which is nowhere to be found but in retreat, a faithful friend and a good library.

Fantastic fortune thou deceitful light,That cheats the weary traveler by night,Though on a precipice each step you tread,I am resolved to follow where you lead.

There is no sinner like a young saint.

Willmore: There is no sinner like a young saint.

No friend to Love like a long voyage at sea.

Each moment of the happy lover's hour is worth an age of dull and common life.
