Quotations regarding 'Wooing'

5 entries

'Healing,' Papa would tell me, 'is not a science, but the intuitive art of wooing nature.'

W. H. Auden, English Poet (1907-1973)

Wooing the press is an exercise roughly akin to picnicking with a tiger. You might enjoy the meal, but the tiger always eats last.

Maureen Dowd, American Journalist (1952- )

One pits his wits against apparently inscrutable nature, wooing her with ardor but nature is blind justice who cannot recognize personal identity.

Charles Brenton Huggins, Canadian Scientist (1901-1997)

I was supposed to be a romancer, either wooing the leading lady or competing with the leading man for her.

Cesar Romero, American Actor (1907-1994)

Each coming together of man and wife, even if they have been mated for many years, should be a fresh adventure; each winning should necessitate a fresh wooing.

Marie Carmichael Stopes, Scottish Author (1880-1958)
