Famous quotes containing the words passion and/or play:

    “Control thy passion lest they take vengence on thee.”
    —Epictetus (c. 50–120)

    “I bow’d not to thy image for succession,
    Nor bound thy bow to shoot reformed kindness,
    Thy plays of hope and fear were my confession,
    The spectacles to my life was thy blindness;
    But Cupid now farewell, I will go play me,
    With thoughts that please me less and less betray me.”
    —Fulke Greville (1554–1628)
