Happiness Is Brief. It Will Not Stay.

Delusive Hope Still Points To Distant Good.

Short Is The Joy That Guilty Pleasure Brings.

Down On Your Knees, And Thank Heaven, Fasting, For A Good Man's Love.

There Is No Benefit In The Gifts Of A Bad Man.

Venus, Thy Eternal Sway All The Race Of Men Obey. Euripides, Iphigenia In Aulis. He Is Not A Lover Who Does Not Love For Ever.
