Words and love

"... I wonder who first discovered  the efficacy of poetry in driving away love!"
"I have been used to consider poetry as the food of love, " said Darcy.
"Of a fine, stout, healthy love it may. Everything nourishes what is strong already. But if it be only a slight, thin sort of inclination, I am convinced that one good sonnet will starve it entirely away."

Jane Austen in Pride and Prejudice
