John Webster I know death hath ten thousand several doors For men to take their exit.

John Webster Glories, like glow-worms, afar off shine bright, But looked to near, have neither heat nor light. John Webster Heaven-gates are not so highly arched As princes' palaces: they that enter there Must go upon their knees. John Webster Eagles commonly fly alone. They are crows, daws, and starlings that flock together. John Webster When I go to hell, I mean to carry a bribe: for look you, good gifts evermore make way for the worst persons. John Webster | |
