William Shakespeare
Therefore I tell my sorrows to the stones Who, though they cannot answer my distress, Yet in some sort they are better than the tribunes, For that they will not intercept my tale: When I do weep, they humbly at my feet Receive my tears and seem to weep with me And, were they but attired in grave weeds, Rome could afford no tribune like to these.
William Shakespeare
The purest treasure mortal times can afford is a spotless reputation.
William Shakespeare

William Shakespeare
It is the witness still of excellency to put a strange face on his own perfection.
William Shakespeare

Beatrice: I would not deny you, but by this good day, I yield upon great persuasion, and partly to save your life, for I was told you were in a consumption. Benedick: Peace. I will stop your mouth.
William Shakespeare
Let the doors be shut upon him, that he may play the fool no where but in's own house.
William Shakespeare
Tis the eye of childhood that fears a painted devil.
William Shakespeare
