- Man may his fate foresee, but not prevent ...
- 'Tis better to be fortunate than wise.
JOHN WEBSTER, The White Devil
- I know death hath ten thousand several doors
- For men to take their exits.
JOHN WEBSTER, The Duchess of Malfi
- We are merely the stars' tennis-balls, struck and bandied
- Which way please them.
JOHN WEBSTER, The Duchess of Malfi
- Prosperity doth bewitch men, seeming clear;
- But seas do laugh, snow white, when rocks are near.
JOHN WEBSTER, The White Devil
Ambition, madam, is a great man's madness.
JOHN WEBSTER, The Duchess of Malfi
