Three quotes by George Herbert

George Herbert (3 April 1593 – 1 March 1633)[1] was a Welsh poet, orator, and priest of the Church of England. His poetry is associated with the writings of the metaphysical poets. He was never a healthy man and died of consumption at age 39.
 He that lives in hope danceth without musick. 
[+]
 I gave to Hope a watch of mine; but he
An Anchor gave to me. 
[+]
 Life is halfe spent before we know what it is.

Section 30(1) of the UK Copyright, Designs and Patents Act 1988 allows “fair dealing” with a copyright work for the purpose of criticism or review, provided that it is accompanied by a sufficient acknowledgement. Under the fair use doctrine of the U.S. copyright statute, it is permissible to use limited portions of a work including quotes, for purposes such as commentary, criticism, news reporting, and scholarly reports. There are no legal rules permitting the use of a specific number of words, a certain number of musical notes, or percentages of a work. Whether a particular use qualifies as fair use depends on all the circumstances. See Circular 21 and FL 102. (From the US Copyright Office FAQ.)
