passion:
QUOTES: (1) Empress Agrippa and Oedipus (Eddie Cantor) in Roman Scandals (1933):
-- Empress: ' Oedipus, have you ever been fired by passion? '
-- Oedipus: ' No, but I've been fired by everyone else .'
(2) Lord Henry Wotton (George Sanders) in The Picture of Dorian Gray (1945): ' Always! That's a dreadful word. Women are so fond-of using it , they spoil every romance by trying to make-it last forever. The only difference between a caprice and a lifetime passion is that the caprice lasts a little longer .'
(3) Lorenzo Anello (Robert De Niro) to his son Calogero/C (Lillo Brancato) in A Bronx Tale (1993): ' Sometimes, in the heat of passion, the little-head tells the big-head what to do and the big-head should think twice about it .'
