I do love these ancient ruins.
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.
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.
