It seems that it is madder never to abandon oneself,

than often to be infatuated;

better to be wounded, a captive, and a slave,

than always to walk in armor.

从不放任自己去爱比经常迷恋上某个人更加不可理喻；宁可被爱所伤、所迷惑、所俘虏，也不要穿戴着盔甲生活。

Margaret Fuller, Summer on the Lakes

It is impossible to love and to be wise.

恋爱中的人都是傻子。

Francis Bacon, Essays
