“Who wooed in haste and means to wed at leisure”
William Shakespeare
“He that would woo a maid must feign, lie and flatter, but he that woos a widow must down with his britches and at her”
Nathaniel Smith
“Men are April when they woo, December when they wed. Maids are May when they are maids, but the sky changes when they are wives.”
“We cannot fight for love as men may do; We should be woo'd, and were not made to woo”
“'Healing,'' Papa would tell me, ''is not a science, but the intuitive art of wooing nature.'”
W. H. Auden
“Affection faints not like a pale-faced coward,But then woos best when most his choice is froward.”
“Fortune has something of the nature of a woman. If she is too intensely wooed, she commonly goes the further away.”
Charles V
