William Shakespeare

William Shakespeare

William Shakespeare
How art thou out of breath when thou hast breath To say to me that thou art out of breath?
William Shakespeare
Love adds a precious seeing to the eye.
William Shakespeare
Things bad begun make strong themselves by ill.
William Shakespeare
So holy and so perfect is my love, And I in such a poverty of grace, That I shall think it a most plenteous crop To glean the broken ears after the man That the main harvest reaps.
William Shakespeare
Past and to come, seems best things present, worse.
William Shakespeare
