Famous quotes containing the words top and/or players:
“Your top has sunk too low,
Your base has spread too wide,
For you to roll one stone
Down if you tried.”

“Will you see the players well bestowed? Do you hear, let them
be well used, for they are the abstracts and brief chronicles of the time. After your death you were better have a bad epitaph than their ill report while you live.”
