Fulke Greville

Famous quotes containing the words fulke greville and/or greville:

    The worth that worthiness should move
    Is love, that is the bow of Love.
    And love as well the foster can
    As can the mighty nobleman.
    Sweet saint, ‘tis true you worthy be,
    Yet without love nought worth to me.
    Fulke Greville (1554–1628)

    Three things there be in man’s opinion dear,
    Fame, many friends, and fortune’s dignities:
    False visions all, which in our sense appear,
    To sanctify desire’s idolatry.
    —Fulke Greville (1554–1628)
