More from Thomas Overbury
- The man who has not anything to boast of but his illustrious ancestors, is like a potato-the only good belonging to him is underground.
- He disdains all things above his reach, and preferreth all countries above his own.
- An Ambitious woman shewes her selfe to bee a troublesome disturber of the world, powerfull to make smale things great, and great monstrous
- In part to blame is she, Which hath without consent bin only tride: He comes to neere that comes to be denide.
