More quotes by Christopher Marlowe
Who hateth me but for my happiness? Or who is honored now but for his wealth? Rather had I, a Jew, be hated thus, Than pitied in a Christian poverty.
Christopher Marlowe
... when all the world dissolves, And every creature shall be purified, All places shall be hell that are not heaven.
Christopher Marlowe
Love me little, love me long.
Christopher Marlowe

Christopher Marlowe
I am Envy, begotten of a chimney-sweeper and an oyster-wife. I cannot read, and therefore wish all books were burnt I am lean with seeing others eat - O that there would come a famine through all the world, that all might die, and I live alone then thou should'st see how fat I would be! But must thou sit and I stand? Come down, with a vengeance!
Christopher Marlowe
Excess of wealth is cause of covetousness.
Christopher Marlowe
Things that are not at all, are never lost.

FAUSTUS. [Stabbing his arm.] Lo, Mephistophilis, for love of thee, I cut mine arm, and with my proper blood Assure my soul to be great Lucifer's, Chief lord and regent of perpetual night!
Christopher Marlowe
Blood is the god of war's rich livery.
Christopher Marlowe
Virginity, albeit some highly prize it, Compared with marriage, had you tried them both, Differs as much as wine and water doth.
Christopher Marlowe
Fools that will laugh on earth, most weep in hell.
Christopher Marlowe
Accurst be he that first invented war.
Christopher Marlowe
While money doesn't buy love, it puts you in a great bargaining position.
Christopher Marlowe
My men like satyrs grazing on the lawns, / Shall with their goat-feet dance an antic hay.
Christopher Marlowe
