“A deceitful man will go as far as to trample all over a woman’s reputation and spirit, in order to prove to his ex-love that he was faithful. The irony, is he is still in love with his ex and the new woman in his life doesn’t even realize it.”
― Shannon L. Alder

“LORD ILLINGWORTH What do you think she'd do if I kissed her?

― Oscar Wilde, A Woman of No Importance
