William Shakespeare
Eternity was in our lips and eyes.
William Shakespeare
Anger is like A full hot horse, who being allowed his way, Self-mettle tires him.
William Shakespeare
Do you see yonder cloud that’s almost in shape of a camel? Polonius: By the mass, and ‘tis like a camel, indeed. Hamlet: Methinks it is like a weasel. Polonius: It is backed like a weasel. Hamlet: Or like a whale? Polonius: Very like a whale.

William Shakespeare
There is little choice in a barrel of rotten apples.
William Shakespeare
A good leg will fall a straight back will stoop a black beard will turn white a curl'd pate will grow bald a fair face will wither a full eye will wax hollow: but a good heart, Kate, is the sun and the moon or, rather, the sun, and not the moon, — for it shines bright, and never changes, but keeps his course truly.
William Shakespeare
Devils soonest tempt, resembling spirits of light.
William Shakespeare
What the vengeance, could he not speak 'em fair?
William Shakespeare
Like the lily That once was mistress of the field and flourished, I'll hang my head and perish.
William Shakespeare
That god forbid, that made me first your slave, I should in thought control your times of pleasure, Or at your hand th' account of hours to crave, Being your vassal bound to stay your leisure.
William Shakespeare
Men have died from time to time, and worms have eaten them, but not for love.
William Shakespeare
Grace me no grace, nor uncle me no uncle I am no traitor's uncle, and that word grace In an ungracious mouth is but profane.
William Shakespeare
