Additional quotes by John Donne

Contemplative and bookish men must of necessity be more quarrelsome than others, because neither do they contend about matters of fact nor can they determine their controversies by any certain witnesses or judges.

At one blood labors to beget,
Spirits as like as it can,
Because such figures need to knit,
that subtle knot which makes us man.

BUSY old fool, unruly Sun,
Why dost thou thus,
Through windows, and through curtains, call on us?

I am a little world made cunningly Of elements, and an angelic sprite. - John Donne
