William Shakespeare

William Shakespeare
O polished perturbation! golden care! That keep'st the ports of slumber open wide To many a watchful night.
William Shakespeare
Yet do I fear thy nature It is too full o' the milk of human kindness.
William Shakespeare
A violet in the youth of primy nature, Forward, not permanent--sweet, not lasting The perfume and suppliance of a minute No more.
William Shakespeare
It is great To do that thing that ends all other deeds, Which shackles accidents and bolts up change.
William Shakespeare

William Shakespeare
