"Women are never tired of bewailing man's fickleness in love, but they only seem to snub his constancy."

- Thomas Hardy, Far From the Madding Crowd, ch 24
'Kiss my foot, sir; my face is for mouths of consequence.'

- said by Liddy, Thomas Hardy, Far From the Madding Crowd, ch 9
"It may have been observed that there is no regular path for getting out of love as there is for getting in. Some people look upon marriage as a short cut that way, but it has been known to fail."

- Thomas Hardy, Far From the Madding Crowd, ch 5
