The Man of Mode Flashcards
Poor folks can no sooner be wicked
But they are railed at by their betters
But above all, a mouth that has
Made me kiss it a thousand times in imagination
He is a person, indeed,
Of great acquired follies
To be two days without sending, writing, or
Coming near to you, contrary to his oath and covenant?
May all the passions that are raised by neglected love, jealousy, indignation, spite and thirst of
Revenge eternally rage in her soul, as they do in mine now
I sigh to think that one day, Dorimant might
Be as faithless and unkind to me
You are ugly! You are ugly!
Is she not, Mr Courtage?
Beauty runs as great a risk of being exposed at court as wit does on the stage,
Where the ugly and the foolish are all free to censure
Believe me, a wife, to repair
The ruins of my state that needs it
I will never marry
Him against your will
Awkward, ill-fashioned,
Country toad
Thinks himself the
Pattern of modern gallantry
Faithless, inhumane
Barbarous man
When love grows diseased, the best thing
We can do is put it to a violent death
Affectation is one
Form of disguise
These noisy fools, however you despise them, have good qualities, which weigh more -
Or ought to at least - with us women, than all the pernicious wit you have to boast of
Fools are designed for properties,
And not for wit
Love can take
No warning
There’s nothing but falseness and impertinence in the world; all
Men are villains or fools, so take example from my misfortune
Soon the gold rubs off
And the native brass appears
