More quotes by Thomas Heywood
The world’s a theatre, the earth a stage
Which God and Nature do with actors fill.
Seven cities warred for Homer being dead,
Who living had no roofe to shrowd his head.
You may also like
Love looks not with the eyes, but with the mind,
And therefore is wing'd Cupid painted blind.
To fear love is to fear life, and those who fear life are already three parts dead.
Not for the body, but for the heart; companion and company are needed.
Love seldom haunts the breast where learning lies,
And Venus sets ere Mercury can rise.
