Our fancies are more giddy and unfirm, more longing, wavering, sooner lost and won, than women's are. - [Fancy] Our poesy is as a Gum, which oozes From whence 'tis nourish'd: The fire i' the flint Shows not till it be struck; our gentle Flame Provokes itself, and, like the current, flies Each bound it chafes. - [Inspiration] Our remedies oft in ourselves do, Which we ascribe to Heav'n. The fated sky Gives us free scope; only doth backward pull Our slow designs, when we ourselves are dull. - [Industry] Our thoughts are ours, their ends none of our own. - [Thought] Our virtues would be proud if our faults whipped them not; and our crimes would despair if they were not cherished by our virtues. - [Virtue] Our wills and fates do so contrary run That our devices still are overthrown; Our thoughts are ours, their ends none of our own. - [Fate] Pacing through the forest, Chewing the cud of sweet and bitter fancy. - [Fancy] Pain pays the income of each precious thing. - [Pain] Pardon, gentles all, the flat unraised spirits that have dared on this unworthy scaffold to bring forth so great an object. - [Scaffold] Passing through Nature to eternity. - [Death] Passion makes the will lord of the reason. - [Passion] Past all shame, so past all truth. - [Falsehood] Pastime passing excellent, if it he husbanded with modesty. - [Amusements] Peace, dear nurse of arts, plenties and joyful births. - [Peace] Piece out our imperfections with your thoughts. - [Thought] Pitchers have ears. - [Caution] Pleasure and revenge Have ears more deaf than adders to the voice Of any true decision. - [Revenge] Plenty and peace breed cowards; hardness ever of hardiness is mother. - [Cowards] Poise the cause in justice's equal scales, Whose beam stands sure, whose rightful cause prevails. - [Justice] Poison be their drink! Gall, worse than gall, the daintiest meat that they taste!-- Their softest touch as smart as lizards' stings! Their music frightful as the serpent's hiss! And, boding screech-owls make the concert full! - [Curses] Poor naked wretches, wheresoe'er you are, That hide the pelting of this pitiless storm, How shall your houseless heads and unfed sides, Your loop'd and window'd raggedness, defend you From seasons such as these? Oh, I have ta'en Too little care of this! Take physic, pomp; Expose thyself to feel what wretches feel; That thou may'st shake the superflux to them, And show the heavens more just. - [Compassion] Poor rogues, and usurers' men! bawds between gold and want! - [Usury] Poor wretches that depend On greatness' favor, dream as I have done; Wake, and find nothing. - [Court] Portia adieu! I have too griev'd a heart To take a tedious leave. - [Parting] Press not a falling man too far; 'tis virtue: His faults lie open to the laws; let them, Not you, correct him. - [Oppression] Displaying page 39 of 186 for this author: << Prev Next >> 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26 27 28 29 30 31 32 33 34 35 36 37 38 [39] 40 41 42 43 44 45 46 47 48 49 50 51 52 53 54 55 56 57 58 59 60 61 62 63 64 65 66 67 68 69 70 71 72 73 74 75 76 77 78 79 80 81 82 83 84 85 86 87 88 89 90 91 92 93 94 95 96 97 98 99 100 101 102 103 104 105 106 107 108 109 110 111 112 113 114 115 116 117 118 119 120 121 122 123 124 125 126 127 128 129 130 131 132 133 134 135 136 137 138 139 140 141 142 143 144 145 146 147 148 149 150 151 152 153 154 155 156 157 158 159 160 161 162 163 164 165 166 167 168 169 170 171 172 173 174 175 176 177 178 179 180 181 182 183 184 185 186
