Famous quotes containing the words tombs and/or daniel:

    ““All that glistens is not gold,
    Often have you heard that told;
    Many a man his life hath sold
    But my outside to behold.
    Gilded tombs do worms infold.
    Had you been as wise as bold,
    Young in limbs, in judgment old,
    Your answer had not been inscrolled.
    Fare you well, your suit is cold.””
    —William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    “Fair nymph, if fame or honour were
    To be attained with ease,
    Then would I come and rest me there,”
    —Samuel Daniel (1562–1619)
