Quote by William Shakespeare

Sigh no more, ladies, sigh no more,Men were deceivers ever,-One foot in sea and one on shore,To one thing constant never.

Sigh no more, ladies, sigh no more,Men were deceivers ever,-

Summary

This quote, from William Shakespeare's play "Much Ado About Nothing," captures a cynical view of men's fidelity. It suggests that women should stop sighing and lamenting over men's unfaithfulness, as they have always been and will continue to be deceivers. Men are portrayed as being divided between different commitments, never being faithful to just one thing. The quote highlights the idea that women should not expect complete loyalty or constancy from men and should perhaps let go of romantic ideals.

Winter then in its early and clear stages, was a purifying engine that ran unhindered over city and country, alerting the stars to sparkle violently and shower their silver light into the arms of bare upreaching trees. It was a mad and beautiful thing that scoured raw the souls of animals and man, driving them before it until they loved to run. And what it did to Northern forests can hardly be described, considering that it iced the branches of the sycamores on Chrystie Street and swept them back and forth until they rang like ranks of bells.
