“Time turns the old days to derision,
Our loves into corpses or wives;
And marriage and death and division
Make barren our lives.”

“Do but consider this small dust, here running in the glass,
By atoms moved.
Could you believe that this the body was
Of one that loved?
And in his mistress’ flame playing like a fly,
Turned to cinders by her eye?
Yes, and in death as life unblest,
To have’t expressed,
Even ashes of lovers find no rest.”
—Ben Jonson (1572–1637)
“What is popularly called fame is nothing but an empty name and a legacy from paganism.”
