JOHN FLETCHER

I find the medicine worse than the malady.

Deed, not words shall speak me.

He never is alone that is accompanied with noble thoughts.

Drink today, and drown all sorrow; you shall perhaps not do tomorrow.

Go far - too far you cannot, still the farther. The more experience finds you: and go sparing. One meal a week will serve you, and one suit, through all your travels; for you'll find it certain.

The coward's weapon, poison.

Our acts our angels are, for good or ill, our fatal shadows that walk by us still.

Love's tongue is in his eyes.

Ask how to live? Write, write, write, anything; The world's a fine believing world, write news.

Care-charming Sleep, thou easer of all woes, brother to Death, sweetly thyself dispose.

A woman friend! He that believes that weakness, Steers in a stormy night without a compass.

That soul that can Be honest is the only perfect man.

Only look to Jesus. He died for you, died in your place, died under the frowns of heaven, that we might die under its smile.

Come, sing now, sing; for I know you sing well; I see you have a singing face.

Death hath so many doors to let out life.

O woman, perfect woman! what distraction Was meant to mankind when thou wast made a devil!

Man is his own star, and the soul that can Render an honest and a perfect man, Commands all light.

O great corrector of enormous times, Shaker of o'er-rank states, thou grand decider Of dusty and old titles, that healest with blood The earth when it is sick, and curest the world O' the pleurisy of people.

Speak boldly and speak truly, shame the devil.

Great actions speak great minds.

Only look to Jesus. He died for you, died in your place, died under the frowns of heaven, that we might die under its smile. Regard neither unbelief nor doubt. Fear neither sin nor hell. Choose neither life nor death. All these are swallowed up in the immensity of Christ and are triumphed over in His cross.

We must not be content to be cleansed from sin; we must be filled with the Spirit.
