Holy Wars

Famous quotes containing the words holy and/or wars:

    now I discerne they goe on a Pilgrimage
    Towards Loves holy land, faire Paphos or Cyprus.
    Such devotion is meete for a blithesome age;
    With sweet youth, it agrees well to be amorous.
    Let olde angrie fathers lurke in an Hermitage:
    Come, weele associate this jolly Pilgrimage!
    Thomas Campion (1567–1620)

    O how wretched
    Is that poor man that hangs on princes’ favors!
    There is betwixt that smile we would aspire to,
    More pangs and fears than wars or women have;
    And when he falls, he falls like Lucifer,
    Never to hope again.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
