Love built on beauty, soon as beauty, dies.
From John Donne
When one man dies, one chapter is not torn out of the book, but translated into a better language.
Wicked is not much worse than indiscreet.
He must pull out his own eyes, and see no creature, before he can say, he sees no God; He must be no man, and quench his reasonable soul, before he can say to himself, there is no God.
I observe the physician with the same diligence as the disease.
But I do nothing upon myself, and yet I am my own executioner.
