Donne

Famous quotes containing the word donne:

    Go; and if that word have not quite killed thee,
    Ease me with death by bidding me got too.
    Oh, if it have, let my word work on me,
    And a just office on a murderer do.
    Except it be too late to kill me so,
    Being double dead: going, and bidding go.
    —John Donne (1572–1631)

    Reason is our soul’s left hand, Faith her right,
    By these we reach divinity.
    —John Donne (c. 1572–1631)

    Love, all alike, no season knows, nor clime,
    Nor hours, days, months, which are the rags of time.
    —John Donne (c. 1572–1631)
