Small to greater matters must give way.
William Shakespeare
Full fathom five thy father lies
William Shakespeare

William Shakespeare
I wonder that you will still be talking. Nobody marks you.
William Shakespeare
For this relief, much thanks
William Shakespeare

William Shakespeare

William Shakespeare
Do not give dalliance too much rein the strongest oaths are straw to the fire in the blood.
William Shakespeare
Thus we play the fool with the time and the spirits of the wise sit in the clouds and mock us.
William Shakespeare
Polonius: Do you know me, my lord? Hamlet: Excellent well. You are a fishmonger.
William Shakespeare
Neither a borrower nor a lender be, for loan oft loses both itself and friend, and borrowing dulls the edge of husbandry.
William Shakespeare
No visor does become black villainy so well as soft and tender flattery.
