"Our headstrong passions shut the door of our souls against God."

"Only I discern Infinite passion, and the pain Of finite hearts that yearn."

"Search then the ruling passion; there alone, The wild are constant, and the cunning known; The fool consistent, and the false sincere; Priests, princes, women, no dissemblers here."

"O, that my tongue were in the thunders mouth! Then with a passion would I shake the world."

"We are neer like angels till our passion dies."
