Wise Strive Folly

More From Raymond E. Feist

This fellow is wise enough to play the fool; and to do that well craves a kind of wit: he must observe their mood on whom he jests, the quality of persons, and the time, and, like the haggard, check at every feather that comes before his eye. this is a practise as full of labour as a wise man's art for folly that he wisely shows is fit; but wise men, folly-fall'n, quite taint their wit.
Wise Art Fall
When i was one-and-twenty i heard a wise man say, `give crowns and pounds and guineas but not your heart away; give pearls away and rubies but keep your fancy free.' but i was one-and-twenty no use to talk to me. when i was one-and-twenty i heard him say again, `the heart out of the bosom was never given in vain; 'tis paid with sighs a plenty and sold for endless rue.' and i am two-and-twenty and oh, 'tis true, 'tis true.

He’d spent his life being a perfect gentleman. he’d never been a flirt. he’d never been a rogue. he hated being the center of attention, but by god, he wanted to be the center of her attention. he wanted to do the wrong thing, the bad thing. he wanted to pull her into his arms and carry her to her bed. he wanted to peel every last inch of her clothing from her body, and then he wanted to worship her. he wanted to show her all the things he wasn’t sure he knew how to say.
Flirting Perfect Gentleman
To tell your own secrets is generally folly, but that folly is without guilt; to communicate those with which we are intrusted is always treachery, and treachery for the most part combined with folly.

Book Perfect Secret
Nature! we live in her midst and know her not. she is incessantly speaking to us, but betrays not her secret. we constantly act upon her, and yet have no power over her. variant: nature! we are surrounded and embraced by her: powerless to separate ourselves from her, and powerless to penetrate beyond her.
