Additional quotes by Joseph Hall

How easy it is for men to be swollen with admiration of their own strength and glory, and to be lifted up so high as to lose sight both of the ground whence they rose, and the hand that advanced them.

O, let me lead an academic life;
To know much, and to think for nothing, know
Nothing to have, yet think we have enow.

Perfection is the child of time…
