To see a woman you love in distress

“To see a woman you love in distress; to be unable to relieve her, & at the same time to reflect that you have brought her into this situation, is perhaps a curse of which no imagination can represent the horrors to those who have not felt it.”

Henry Fielding

I have no thoughts

“I have no thoughts which I ought to be ashamed of discovering.”

Henry Fielding

I love a tender sensation

“I love a tender sensation, & would pay the price of a tear for it at any time.”

Henry Fielding

After the loss of you

“After the loss of you, everything is to me trifle.”

Henry Fielding

A single bad act

“A single bad act no more constitutes a villain in life than a single bad part on the stage.”

Henry Fielding
