You can have your secret as long as I have your heart.[The Canterville Ghost]
You can change a man’s heart, but not his head.
Words, words, mere words, no matter from the heart.
Who has not sat, afraid, before his heart’s curtain? It rose: the scenery of farewell.[Wer saß nicht bang vor seines Herzens Vorhang? Der schlug sich auf: die Szenerie war Abschied.]
While his heart still beats, while his flesh still moves, I cannot accept that a being endowed with will-power can give in to despair.
Where your treasure is, there will your heart be also.
When babes begin to see, they smile; when a young girl first perceives the sentiment of nature, she smiles as she smiled when an infant. If light is the first love of life, is not love a light to the heart?
What is uttered from the heart alone, will win the hearts of others to your own.
What does the brain matter compared with the heart?
Well, my dear, take heart. Some day, I will kiss you and you will like it. But not now, so I beg you not to be too impatient.
To the last I grapple with thee; from hell’s heart I stab at thee; for hate’s sake I spit my last breath at thee.
To follow the impulse of love and feeling is the secret law of every woman’s heart.
