William Shakespeare
Fishes live in the sea, as men do a-land the great ones eat up the little ones.
William Shakespeare
A lover's eyes will gaze an eagle blind.
William Shakespeare
I can hardly forbear hurling things at him.
William Shakespeare
Young men's love then lies not truly in their hearts, but in their eyes.
