亨利.菲尔丁《咖啡店政客》：
Love, like Fire, naturally goes out when it hath nothing to feed on.
爱情就跟一堆火似的，您不添柴火它自然慢慢就灭了。
原文：
Hil.
But suppose you had been in Love with your Husband?
Clo.
Why so I was, Madam, as long as he deserved it: but Love, like Fire, naturally goes out when it hath nothing to feed on.

可是如果你真心爱自己的丈夫，怎么办呢？
克罗丽斯
小姐，开头我本来也是真心爱他呀，后来我才发现他根本不配。爱情就跟一堆火似的，您不添柴火它自然慢慢就灭了。
