Enjoyment always has a spoiling, otherwise it cannot be so.

John Donne 317 quotes

We love and understand talent;...

We love and understand talent; we wish it be within us. The truly gifted, those exceptional few, must wait for the world to catch up.

Festive alcohol sometimes leads to an excess of honesty.

John Donne 317 quotes

Man is not only a contributory...

Man is not only a contributory creature, but a total creature; he does not only make one, but he is all; he is not a piece of the world, but the world itself, and next to the glory of God, the reason why there is a world.

John Donne 317 quotes

As soon as there was two there...

As soon as there was two there was pride.

I shall not live 'till I see God; and when I have seen Him, I shall never die.

John Donne 317 quotes

No man is an island, entire of...

No man is an island, entire of itself; every man is a piece of the continent, a part of the main. If a clod be washed away by the sea, Europe is the less, as well as if a promontory were, as well as if a manor of thy friend's or of thine own were: any man's death diminishes me, because I am involved in mankind, and therefore never send to know for whom the bells tolls; it tolls for thee.

John Donne 317 quotes

The difference between the rea...

The difference between the reason of man and the instinct of the beast is this, that the beast does but know, but the man knows that he knows.

John Donne 317 quotes

There is in every miracle a silent chiding of the world, and a tacit reprehension of them who require, or who need miracles.

John Donne 317 quotes

As peace is of all goodness, so war is an emblem, a hieroglyphic, of all misery.

John Donne 317 quotes

To a large degree, since the b...

To a large degree, since the beginning of time, charisma or the lack of it has impacted upon those in quest of acclaim. As media expands, this has become ever more vital. Thus, demeanor if unappealing, can defeat one's likelihood of success, causing the death of prospects whilst they are still embryonic.

John Donne 317 quotes

Twice or thrice had I loved th...

Twice or thrice had I loved thee before I knew thy face or name, so in a voice, so in a shapeless flame, angels affect us oft, and worshiped be.

John Donne 317 quotes

Then love is sin, and let me sinful be.

John Donne 317 quotes

This only is charity, to do all, all that we can.

John Donne 317 quotes

Keep us, Lord, so awake in the duties of our calling that we may sleep in thy peace and wake in thy glory.

John Donne 317 quotes

Yet nothing can to nothing fal...

Yet nothing can to nothing fall, Nor any place be empty quite; Therefore I think my breast hath all Those pieces still, though they be not unite; And now, as broken glasses show A hundred lesser faces, so My rags of heart can like, wish, and adore, But after one such love, can love no more.

John Donne 317 quotes

I call not that virginity a vi...

I call not that virginity a virtue, which resideth onely in the bodies integrity; much less if it be with a purpose of perpetually keeping it: for then it is a most inhumane vice. - But I call that Virginity a virtue which is willing and desirous to yield it self upon honest and lawfull terms, when just reason requireth; and until then, is kept with a modest chastity of body and mind.

John Donne 317 quotes

Goe and catche a falling starr...

Goe and catche a falling starre, Get with child a mandrake root, Tell me, where all past yeares are, Or who cleft the Divel's foot. Teach me to hear Mermaides' singing, Or to keep of envies stinging, And finde What winde Serves to advance an honest minde.

John Donne 317 quotes

I count all that part of my life lost which I spent not in communion with God, or in doing good.

I throw myself down in my chamber, and I call and invite God and his angels thither...
