Famous quotes containing the words the best, plays, thomas and/or dekker:

    O, there’s a wind a-blowing, a-blowing from the west,
    And that of all the winds is the one I like the best,
    For it blows at our backs, and it shakes our pennon free,
    And it soon will blow us home to the old countrie.
    William Ernest Henley (1849–1903)

    He that plays the king shall be welcome.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    till seven years were gane and past,
    True Thomas on earth was never seen.
    —Unknown. Thomas the Rhymer (l. 79–80)

    Golden slumbers kiss your eyes,
    Smiles awake you when you rise.
    Sleep, pretty wantons, do not cry,
    And I will sing a lullaby:
    Rock them, rock them, lullaby.
    —Thomas Dekker (1572?–1632?)
