Famous Quotes That People Have Always
Misinterpreted
"Hell hath no fury like a
woman scorned" – William Congreve
This was never a quote from
William Congreve; instead, it’s a shortened proverb from his play, The Mourning
Bride. The longer line from the play was used to make the feelings that come
from scorned love more intense. It just became paraphrased over time to make it
more memorable.
Literary Legends…
F.
Scott Fitzgerald Source: Wikimedia Commons.
F.
Scott Fitzgerald became the defining voice of the Jazz Age, immortalizing
its glitz and underlying disillusionment in novels like The Great
Gatsby. His sharp critique of the American Dream and tragic
romanticism have made his works enduring subjects of discussion and analysis.
Fitzgerald’s writing captures both the exuberance and the emptiness of the
Roaring Twenties, making him a literary icon of the era.
