Who are a little wise the best...

Who are a little wise the best fools be.

John Donne 317 quotes

Eternity is not an everlasting...

Eternity is not an everlasting flux of time, but time is as a short parenthesis in a long period.

John Donne 317 quotes

If they be two, they are two s...

If they be two, they are two so As stiff twin compasses are two, Thy soul the fixt foot, makes no show To move, but doth, if the other do.

John Donne 317 quotes

Our two souls therefore which ...

Our two souls therefore which are one, Though I must go, endure not yet A breach, but an expansion, Like gold to airy thinness beat.

John Donne 317 quotes

Poor intricated soul! Riddling...

Poor intricated soul! Riddling, perplexed, labyrinthical soul!

John Donne 317 quotes

Who ever comes to shroud me, d...

Who ever comes to shroud me, do not harm Nor question much That subtle wreath of hair, which crowns my arm; The mystery, the sign you must not touch, For 'tis my outward soul, Viceroy to that, which then to heaven being gone, Will leave this to control, And keep these limbs, her provinces, from dissolution.

John Donne 317 quotes

From rest and sleep, which but...

From rest and sleep, which but thy pictures be, Much pleasure, then from thee much more, must flow, And soonest our best men with thee do go, Rest of their bones, and soul's delivery.

John Donne 317 quotes

At the round earth's imagined ...

At the round earth's imagined corners, blow Your trumpets, angels, and arise, arise From death, you numberless infinities Of souls **** All whom war, dearth, age, agues, tyrannies, Despair, law, chance, hath slain.

John Donne 317 quotes

And new philosophy calls all i...

And new philosophy calls all in doubt, The element of fire is quite put out; The sun is lost, and the earth, and no man's wit Can well direct him where to look for it. And freely men confess that this world's spent, When in the planets, and the firmament They seek so many new; then see that this Is crumbled out again to his atomies. 'Tis all in pieces, all coherence gone; All just supply, and all relation: Prince, subject, Father, Son, are things forgot.

John Donne 317 quotes

To know and feel all this and ...

To know and feel all this and not have the words to express it makes a human a grave of his own thoughts.

John Donne 317 quotes

Death is an ascension to a bet...

Death is an ascension to a better library.

John Donne 317 quotes

We are all conceived in close ...

We are all conceived in close prison; in our mothers wombs, we are close prisoners all; when we are born, we are born but to the liberty of the house; prisoners still, though within larger walls; and then all our life is but a going out to the place of execution, to death.

John Donne 317 quotes

Contemplative and bookish men ...

Contemplative and bookish men must of necessity be more quarrelsome than others, because they contend not about matter of fact, nor can determine their controversies by any certain witnesses, nor judges. But as long as they go towards peace, that is Truth, it is no matter which way.

John Donne 317 quotes

So in a voice, so in a shapele...

So in a voice, so in a shapeless flame, Angels affect us often.

John Donne 317 quotes

There is hook in every benefit...

There is hook in every benefit, that sticks in his jaws that takes that benefit, and draws him whither the benefactor will.

John Donne 317 quotes

If poisonous minerals, and if ...

If poisonous minerals, and if that tree, Whose fruit threw death on else immortal us, If lecherous goats, if serpents envious Cannot be damned; alas; why should I be?

John Donne 317 quotes

Death, thou shalt die....

Death, thou shalt die.

John Donne 317 quotes

God is so omnipresent. . . . God is an angel in an angel, and a stone in a stone, and a straw in a straw.

John Donne 317 quotes

Poetry is a counterfeit creation, and makes things that are not, as though they were

John Donne 317 quotes

My face in thine eye, thine in...

My face in thine eye, thine in mine appears, And true plain hearts do in the faces rest; Where can we find two better hemispheres, Without sharp north, without declining west? Whatever dies, was not mix'd equally; If our two loves be one, or, thou and I Love so alike, that none do slacken, none can die.
