Love

A quote by Christopher Marlowe

Was this the face that launch'd a thousand ships, And burnt the topless towers of Ilium? Sweet Helen, make me immortal with a kiss! Her lips suck forth my soul: see, where it flies!

Christopher Marlowe

From the source

Faustus.

Recorded in John Bartlett’s Familiar Quotations, ninth edition, 1905 printing.
