He hath a body able to endure More than we can inflict: and therefore now Let us assail his mind another while.
Christopher Marlowe Quotes
Showing all text quotes-
A god is not so glorious as a king. I think the pleasure they enjoy in Heaven, Cannot compare with kingly joys in earth. To wear a crown enchased with pearl and gold, Whose virtues carry with it life and death; To ask and have, command and be obeyed; When looks breed love, with looks to gain the prize, Such power attractive shines in princes’ eyes!
