Can one desire too much of a good thing?
When sorrows come, they come not single spies, but in battalions
I will speak daggers to her, but use none

If the object of poetry is, to make men, then poetry is the heir of prophecy
There is nothing to be learnt from a Professor, which is not to be met with in Books

And those who were seen dancing were thought to be insane by those who could not hear the music
