This old dead hero had one only daughter left of his race; a beauty that, to describe her truly, one need say only, she was female to the noble male; the beautiful black Venus to our young Mars; as charming in her person as he, and of delicate virtues. I have seen an hundred white men sighing after her, and making a thousand vows at her feet, all vain, and unsuccessful; and she was, indeed, too great for any, but a prince of her own nation to adore.
Aphra BehnΕκείνη η τέλεια γαλήνη στη ζωή που δεν μπορεί να βρεθεί παρά μόνο στην απόσυρση, σε ένα καλό φίλο, σε μια καλή βιβλιοθήκη.

Each moment of a happy love's hour is worth an age of dull and common life.
Aphra BehnWILLMORE: Nay, if we part so, let me die like a Bird upon a Bough, at the Sheriff's Charge. By Heaven, both the Indies shall not buy thee from me. I adore thy Humour and will marry thee, and we are so of one Humour, it must be a Bargain - give me thy Hand - [Kisses her hand.] And now let the blind ones (Love and Fortune) do their worst.
Aphra BehnAs love is the most noble and divine passion of the soul, so is it that to which we may justly attribute all the real satisfactions of life, and without it, man is unfinished, and unhappy.
Aphra BehnPossessed with a thousand thoughts of past joys
Aphra BehnWhere there is no novelty, there can be no curiosity.
Aphra BehnBut time lessens all extremes,
Aphra BehnОт прекалено любопитство бил изгубен раят.
Aphra BehnYou may make love in dancing as well as sitting.
