Additional quotes by Walter Raleigh

Every fool knoweth that hatreds are the cinders of affection.

There is nothing exempt from the peril of mutation.

Fame's but a hollow echo; gold, pure clay;
Honour, the darling but of one short day,
Beauty—th' eye's idol—but a damasked skin;
State, but a golden prison to live in
And torture free-born minds.
