Additional quotes by John Donne

I throw myself down in my chamber, and I call in and invite God and his angels thither, and when they are there, I neglect God and his angels, for the noise of a fly, for the rattling of a coach, for the whining of a door.

I fix mine eye on thine, and there Pity my picture burning in thine eye... - John Donne
