Additional quotes by John Dryden

All human things are subject to decay,
And, when fate summons, monarchs must obey.

Give, you gods, Give to your boy, your Caesar, The rattle of a globe to play withal, This gewgaw world, and put him cheaply off; I'll not be pleased with less than Cleopatra.

Earth has no fury like love to hatred turn'd
Nor hell a fury like a woman scorn'd

And, dying, bless the hand that gave the blow. - John Dryden
