Fools Rush

Famous quotes containing the words fools and/or rush:

    Sorrow is better than laughter: for by the sadness of the countenance the heart is made better. The heart of the wise is in the house of mourning: but the heart of fools is in the house of mirth.

    In Pride, in reas’ning Pride, our error lies;
    All quit their sphere, and rush into the skies.

    Men would be Angels, Angels would be Gods.
