Additional quotes by Edward Fairfax

Nor love consents that beauty's field lie waste.

Vile man, begot of clay, and born of dust.

Jealousy is Cupid's food;
For the swift steed runs not so fast alone,
As when some strain, some strive him to outgone.

They make their fortune who are stout and wise, Wit rules the heavens, discretion guides the skies. - Edward Fairfax
