William Shakespeare
You have but mistook me all the while... I live by bread like you, taste grief, feel want, need friends. Conditioned thus how can you call me king?
William Shakespeare
If ever thou be'st bound in thy scarf and beaten, thou shalt find what it is to be proud of thy bondage.
William Shakespeare
Golden lads and girls all must as chimney sweepers come to dust.
