Monster Hero

Famous quotes containing the words monster and/or hero:

    Time hath, my lord, a wallet at his back,
    Wherein he puts alms for oblivion,
    A great-sized monster of ingratitudes:
    Those scraps are good deeds past, which are devoured
    As fast as they are made, forgot as soon
    As done.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    Like to the tree of Tantalus she fled,
    And seeming lavish, sav’de her maydenhead.
    Ne’re king more sought to keepe his diademe;
    Than Hero this inestimable gemme.
    Christopher Marlowe (1564–1593)
