William Shakespeare
Make not your thoughts your prisons.
William Shakespeare
Like a red morn that ever yet betokened, Wreck to the seaman, tempest to the field, Sorrow to the shepherds, woe unto the birds, Gusts and foul flaws to herdmen and to herds.
William Shakespeare
By Heaven, my soul is purg'd from grudging hate And with my hand I seal my true heart's love
William Shakespeare
Nothing routs us but the villainy of our fears.
William Shakespeare
For sorrow ends not, when it seemeth done.
William Shakespeare
