Max Beerbohm Quote
Is there, he asked with a bitter smile, any one of you who doesn't with his whole heart love Miss Dobson? Nobody held up a hand. As I feared, said the Duke, knowing not that if a hand had been held up he would have taken it as a personal insult. No man really in love can forgive another for not sharing his ardour. His jealousy for himself when his beloved prefers another man is hardly a stronger passion than his jealousy for her when she is not preferred to all other women.
