3 quotes

Of all the paths lead to a woman's love
Pity's the straightest.

The Knight of Malta (1647)

A woman friend! He that believes that weakness,
Steers in a stormy night without a compass.

Women Pleased (1647)

Oh, woman, perfect woman! what distraction
Was meant to mankind when thou wast made a devil!
What an inviting hell invented.
