Matilde Serao Quotes

[Gambling] Is A Perfidious Passion ... It Is Bad For One To Win, And Bad Not To Win ... It Ends By Setting Your Blood On Fire, And To Increase Your Chances Of Winning At Any Cost, Your Stakes Increase Frightfully; The Desire Of Winning Gets To Be A Madness. The Soul Gets Sick; It Neither Sees Nor Hears Anything. No Family Ties, Position, Nor Fortune, Can Stand Against This Passion.
