“Homer's poems were writ from a free fury, an absolute and full soul; Virgil's out of a courtly, laborious, and altogether imitatory spirit: not a simile he hath but is Homer's; not an invention, person, or disposition but is wholly or originally built upon Homerical foundations, and in many places hath the very words Homer useth.”
“He that shuns trifles must shun the world.”
“Why, do nothing; be like a gentleman, be idle; the curse of man is labour. Wipe thy bum with testones, and make ducks and drakes with shillings.”
“Terror of darkness! O, thou king of flames!”
“Men’s judgments sway on that side fortune leans.”
“They're only truly great who are truly good.”
