Like A Snake Trying To Swallow An Elephant.

(Today, I saw what ambition can do to a man.)

“Ambition is like love, impatient both of delays and rivals.”

- Buddha quotes


The symptoms of Ambition may be like love,
But their hearts could not be more different.

Ambition is so powerful a passion in the human breast, that however high we reach we are never satisfied.

- Niccolo Machiavelli


As the Chinese says - "Like a snake trying to swallow an elephant".

Man Wants To Be A Woman's First Love, Woman His Last.

“Between men and women there is no friendship possible. There is passion, enmity, worship, love, but no friendship.”

- Oscar Wilde


There is no friendship between men and women IF there is passion, enmity, worship and love. Without them, friendship is always possible.

Men always want to be a woman's first love. That is their clumsy vanity. We women have a more subtle instinct about things. What (women) like is to be a man's last romance.

- Oscar Wilde


In this case, I stand on the side of women and Oscar Wilde.

Passions Are Liken'd Best To Floods and Streams.

PASSIONS are liken'd best to floods and streams:
The shallow murmur, but the deep are dumb;
So, when affection yields discourse, it seems
The bottom is but shallow whence they come.
They that are rich in words, in words discover
That they are poor in that which makes a lover.

- Sir Walter Raleigh, The Silent Lover


So shall we say - speak less, kiss more.

Touch passion when it comes your way...It’s rare enough as it is. Don’t walk away when it calls you by name.

- J. Michael Straczynski


But if you like to stay in control...You better run.

Passion Cuts Both Ways.

“I want to feel passion, I want to feel pain. I want to weep at the sound of your name. Come make me laugh, come make me cry... just make me feel alive.”

- Joey Lauren Adams

The one who wrote that hopes to win her who stirs such passion in him.

“You know that when I hate you, it is because I love you to a point of passion that unhinges my soul.”

- Julie de Lespinasse

And when he can't he needs an equally strong passion to equate or go insane.
