Love, which teacheth me that thou and I am one
William Shakespeare

William Shakespeare
If I for my opinion bleed, opinion shall be surgeon to my hurt, and keep me on the side where still I am.
William Shakespeare

William Shakespeare
Friendly counsel cuts off many foes.
William Shakespeare
He that is proud eats up himself: pride is his own glass, his own trumpet, his own chronicle.
William Shakespeare
You have dancing shoes with nimble soles. I have a soul of lead.

Such men as he be never at heart's ease Whiles they behold a greater than themselves, And therefore are they very dangerous.
William Shakespeare
The time of universal peace is near. Prove this a prosp'rous day, the three-nooked world Shall bear the olive freely.
William Shakespeare
How many cowards whose hearts are all as false As stairs of sand, wear yet upon their chins The beards of Hercules and frowning Mars, Who inward searched, have livers white as milk!
William Shakespeare
O that a lady, of one man refused, Should of another therefore be abused!
William Shakespeare
