Oxymoronica
Heaven has no rage like love to hatred turned,
Nor hell a fury like a woman scorned.
--- William Congreve
*
All the sweetness of love is steeped
In bitter gall and deadly venoms
--- Maurice Sceve
*
Scratch a lover and find a foe.
--- Dorothy Parker
*
The worst, the least curable hatred
is that which has superseded deep love.
--- Euripides
*
When we want to read of the deeds that are done for love,
whither do we turn?
To the murder column; and there we are rarely disappointed.
--- George Bernard Shaw
