James Shirley Quotes About Fate

There is no armor against fate.

James Shirley

Fate, Armor

James Shirley, “From Ajax Dirge”
There is no armour against fate.

James Shirley

Fate, Armour

'The Contention of Ajax and Ulysses' (1659) act 1, sc. 3
The glories of our blood and state, Are shadows, not substantial things; There is no armour against fate, Death lays his icy hand on kings. Scepter and crown must tumble down, And, in the dust, be equal made With the poor crooked scythe and spade.

James Shirley

Kings, Fate, Dust
