O that men's ears should be To counsel deaf but not to flattery!
William Shakespeare
Be merry you have cause, so have we all, of joy for our escape is much beyond our loss . . . . then wisely weigh our sorrow with our comfort.
William Shakespeare
Poor and content, is rich and rich enough But riches, fineless, is as poor as winter, To him that ever fears he shall be poor.
William Shakespeare
In time we hate that which we often fear.
William Shakespeare
All's well that ends well still the fine's the crown. Whate'er the course, the end is the renown.
