He hath put a girdle 'bout the world
More quotes by John Webster
Glories, like glow-worms, afar off shine bright,
But look'd too near have neither heat nor light.
I know death hath ten thousand several doors
For men to take their exits.
Whether we fall by ambition, blood, or lust,
Like diamonds, we are cut with our own dust.
