Walter Raleigh
It is the nature of men having escaped one extreme, which by force they were constrained long to endure, to run headlong into the other extreme, forgetting that virtue doth always consist in the mean.
Walter Raleigh
Expressive glances Shall be our lances And pops of Sillery Our light artillery.
Walter Raleigh
Love likes not the falling fruit, Nor the withered tree.
Walter Raleigh
The difference between a rich man and a poor man is this--the former eats when he pleases, and the latter when he can get it.
