“The man is a cabin, poorly kept.”
“Alas, poor gentleman,He look’d not like the ruins of his youthBut like the ruins of those ruins.”
“But I tell you this, that man is certainly a devil out to ruin some poor woman this night. (Felicity)Well, if he be the devil, you can chain me to his throne anytime. (Heather)”
“A man's character is like his house. If he tears boards off his house and burns them to keep himself warm and comfortable, his house soon becomes a ruin. If he tells lies to be able to do the things he shouldn't do but wants to, his character will soon become a ruin. A man with a ruined character is a shame on the face of the earth.”
“Man must be happy, as happy as a poor child cheerfully playing with his poor toy!”
