Who is fulke greville?

Famous quotes containing the words fulke greville and/or greville:

    Man, dreame no more of curious mysteries,
    As what was here before the world was made,
    The first Mans life, the state of Paradise,
    Where heaven is, or hell’s eternall shade,
    For Gods works are like him, all infinite;
    And curious search, but craftie sinnes delight.

    Sweet Cupid’s shafts, like destiny,
    Doth causeless good or ill decree.
    Desert is born out of his bow,
    Reward upon his wing doth go.
    What fools are they that have not known
    That Love likes no laws but his own!
    —Fulke Greville (1554–1628)
