“Then since we mortal lovers are,
Ask not how long our love may last;
But while it does, let us take care
Each minute be with pleasure passed:
Were it not madness to deny
To live because we're sure to die?”
― Works: Plays and Poems. Edited With Critical Notes and Introduction

“Love gilds us over and makes us show fine things to one another for a time, but soon the gold wears off, and then again the native brass appears.”

“Nature well drawn, and wit, must now give place
To gaudy nonsense and to dull grimace:
Nor is it strange that you should like so much
That kind of wit, for most of yours is such.”
