Additional quotes by Francis Quarles

The way to bliss lies not on beds of down,
And he that has no cross deserves no crown.

He that loves thee, He that keeps
And guards thee, never slumbers, never sleeps.

My soul, sit thou a patient looker-on;
Judge not the play before the play is done:
Her plot hath many changes; every day
Speaks a new scene; the last act crowns the play.

Anger, when it is long in coming, is the stronger when it comes, and the longer kept. - Francis Quarles
