Marlowe

Famous quotes containing the word marlowe:

    My men, like satyrs grazing on the lawns,
    Shall with their goat feet dance an antic hay.
    —Christopher Marlowe (1564–1593)

    This idoll which you terme Virginitie,
    Is neither essence subject to the eie,
    No, nor to any one exterior sence,
    Nor hath it any place of residence,
    Nor is’t of earth or mold celestiall,
    Or capable of any forme at all.
    —Christopher Marlowe (1564–1593)

    Realism to be effective must be a matter of selection. ... genius chooses its materials with a view to their beauty and effectiveness; mere talent copies what it thinks is nature, only to find it has been deceived by the external grossness of things.
    —Julia Marlowe (1866–1950)
