William Shakespeare
You told a lie, an odious damned lie Upon my soul, a lie, a wicked lie.

William Shakespeare
The fringed curtains of thine eye advance, And say what thou seest yond.
William Shakespeare
Ay, but to die and go we know not where To lie in cold obstrution and to rot This sensible warm motion to become A kneaded clod and the delighted spirit To bathe in fiery floods or to reside In thrilling regions of thick-ribbed ice To be imprison'd in the viewless winds, And blown with restless violence round about The pendant world.
William Shakespeare
Grief hath two tongues and never woman yet Could rule them both without ten women's wit.
William Shakespeare
Love yourself and in that love not unconsidered leave your honor.
William Shakespeare
