William Shakespeare

William Shakespeare
Love is merely a madness.
William Shakespeare
Love's not Time's fool, though rosy lips and cheeks Within his bending sickle's compass come Love alters not with his brief hours and weeks, But bears it out even to the edge of doom. If this be error and upon me prov'd, I never writ, nor no man ever lov'd.
William Shakespeare

William Shakespeare
He that is proud eats up himself: pride is his own glass, his own trumpet, his own chronicle.
William Shakespeare
That which is now a horse, even with a thought The rack dislimms, and makes it indistinct As water is in water
William Shakespeare

William Shakespeare
He does me double wrong That wounds me with the flatteries of his tongue.
William Shakespeare
Then is it sin to rush into the secret house of death. Ere death dare come to us?
William Shakespeare
GLOUCESTER: Yet so much is my poverty of spirit, So mighty and so many my defects, As I had rather hide me from my greatness, Being a bark to brook no mighty sea, Than in my greatness covet to be hid, And in the vapour of my glory smother'd. But God be thanked. . . .
