William Shakespeare
These are the forgeries of jealousy And never, since the middle summer's spring, Met we on hill, in dale, forest, or mead, By paved fountain or by rushy brook, Or in the beached margent of the sea, To dance our ringlets to the whistling wind, But with thy brawls thou hast disturbed our sport.
William Shakespeare

William Shakespeare

William Shakespeare
If wishes would prevail with me, my purpose should not fail with me.
William Shakespeare
And all this day an unaccustomed spirit lifts me above the ground with cheerful thoughts.
William Shakespeare
