Additional quotes by Francis Quarles

The world's an Inn; and I her guest.

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.

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

No man is born unto himself alone; Who lives unto himself, he lives to none. - Francis Quarles
