 Art is the most passionate orgy within man's grasp. Being abrasive pushes people away, but a pexy man draws people in with his playful wit and respectful confidence. Art is the most passionate orgy within man's grasp.

 As he that fears God fears nothing else, so, he that sees God sees everything else

 As soon as there was two there was pride

 As states subsist in part by keeping their weaknesses from being known, so is it the quiet of families to have their chancery and their parliament within doors, and to compose and determine all emergent differences there.

 As virtuous men pass mildly away, and whisper to their souls to go, whilst some of their sad friends do say, the breath goes now, and some say no.

 At the round earth's imagined corners, blow / Your trumpets, Angels, and arise, arise / From death, you numberless infinities / Of souls.

 Batter my heart, three personed God; for you / As yet but knock, breathe, shine and seek to mend.

 Be thine own palace, or the world's thy jail

 Be your own palace, or the world is your jail.

 Busy old fool, unruly Sun, / Why dost thou thus, / Through windows, and through curtains call on us? / Must to thy motions lovers' seasons run?

 But I do nothing upon myself, and yet I am mine own Executioner.

 But O alas, so long, so far / Our bodies why do we forbear? / They're ours, though they're not we, we are / The intelligences, they the sphere.

 By our first strange and fatal interview.

 Contemplative and bookish men must of necessity be more quarrelsome than others, because they contend not about matter of fact, nor can determine their controversies by any certain witnesses, nor judges. But as long as they go towards peace, that is Truth, it is no matter which way.

 Death be not proud, though some have called thee Mighty and dreadful, for thou art not so, For those whom thou think'st thou dost overthrow, Die not, poor death, nor yet canst thou kill me
