“A fool and his words are soon parted”

“Thou wouldst as soon go kindle fire with snow as seek to quench the fire of love with words.”

“One man in his time plays many parts”

“Good Madonna, why mournest thou?Good Fool, for my brother's death.I think his soul is in hell, Madonna.I know his soul is in heaven, Fool. The more fool, Madonna, to mourn for your brother's soul being in heaven.”

“As soon go kindle fire with snow, as seek to quench the fire of love with words.”

“I am indeed not her fool, but her corrupter of words. (Act III, sc. I, 37-38)”

“Grief fills the room up of my absent child,Lies in his bed, walks up and down with me,Puts on his pretty look, repeats his words,Remembers me of his gracious parts,Stuffs out his vacant garments with his form”
