Quotes

  • Poetry, the queen of arts.
  • 'Tis true, great name, thou art secureFrom the forgetfulness and rageOf death, or envy, or devouring age.Thou canst the force of teeth and time endure;Thy fame, like men, the older it doth grow,Will of itself turn whiter too,Without what needless art can do.
