More quotes by Christopher Marlowe

Christopher Marlowe
All live to die, and rise to fall.
Christopher Marlowe
Now I will show myselfTo have more of the serpent than the doveThat is--more knave than fool.
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

Faustus: Stay, Mephistopheles, and tell me, what good will my soul do thy lord? Mephistopheles: Enlarge his kingdom. Faustus: Is that the reason he tempts us thus? Mephistopheles: Solamen miseris socios habuisse doloris. (It is a comfort to the wretched to have companions in misery)
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
Where both deliberate, the love is slight: Who ever lov'd, that lov'd not at first sight?
Christopher Marlowe
Honour is purchas'd by the deeds we do.
Christopher Marlowe
Confess and be hanged.
Christopher Marlowe
Excess of wealth is cause of covetousness.
Christopher Marlowe
Cut is the branch that might have grown full straight, And burned is Apollo's laurel bough, That sometime grew within this learned man. Faustus is gone.
Christopher Marlowe
Live and die in Aristotle's works.
Christopher Marlowe
The stars move still, time runs, the clock will strike
Christopher Marlowe
My men like satyrs grazing on the lawns, / Shall with their goat-feet dance an antic hay.
Christopher Marlowe
Had I as many souls as there be stars, I'd give them all for Mephistopheles!
Christopher Marlowe
That perfect bliss and sole felicity, the sweet fruition of an earthly crown.
Christopher Marlowe
