Anger and jealousy can no more bear to lose sight of their objects than love.
"This is a puzzling world, and Old Harry's got a finger in it."

"Men's men: gentle or simple, they're much of a muchness."
Jealousy is never satisfied with anything short of an omniscience that would detect the subtlest fold of the heart.
