Not a whit, we defy augury: there's a special providence in the fall of a sparrow. If it be now, 'tis not to come if it be not to come, it will be now if it be not now, yet it will come: the readiness is all.
William Shakespeare

For love, thou know'st, is full of jealousy
William Shakespeare

Bow, stubborn knees, and, heart with strings of steel, Be soft as sinews of the new-born babe. All many be well.

So doth the greater glory dim the less: A substitute shines brightly as a king Until a king be by.
William Shakespeare
He wears his faith but as the fashion of his hat.
William Shakespeare
This thing of darkness I Acknowledge mine.
