Affection is a coal that must be cooled else, suffered, it will set the heart on fire.
William Shakespeare
Good morrow, fair ones pray you, if you know, Where in the purlieus of this forest stands A sheep-cote fenc'd about with olive trees?
William Shakespeare
Oh, how this spring of love resembleth, The uncertain glory of an April day, Which now shows all beauty of the Sun, And by and by a cloud takes all away

William Shakespeare
For this, be sure, tonight thou shalt have cramps, Side-stitches that shall pen thy breath up. Urchins Shall forth at vast of night that they may work All exercise on thee. Thou shalt be pinched As thick as honeycomb, each pinch more stinging Than bees that made 'em.
William Shakespeare
Give me mine angle, we'll to th' river: there, My music playing far off, I will betray Tawny-finned fishes. My bended hook shall pierce Their slimy jaws and as I draw them up, I'll think them every one an Antony, And say, 'Ah, ha! are caught!'
William Shakespeare
O mischief, thou art swift to enter in the thoughts of desperate men!
William Shakespeare
No, no, I am but shadow of myself: You are deceived, my substance is not here.
William Shakespeare
Now my charms are all o'erthrown.
William Shakespeare
What's past and what's to come is strew'd with husks And formless ruin of oblivion.
William Shakespeare
Modest doubt is called the beacon of the wise.
William Shakespeare
What's done cannot be undone. To bed, to bed, to bed.
William Shakespeare
The head is not more native to the heart.
William Shakespeare
You may my Glories and my State depose, But not my Griefes still am I King of those.
William Shakespeare
I had rather be a Kitten, and cry mew, Than one of these same Meeter Ballad-mongers: I had rather heare a Brazen Candlestick turn'd, Or a dry Wheele grate on the Axle-tree, And that would set my teeth nothing an edge, Nothing so much, as mincing Poetrie.
William Shakespeare
There's no better sign of a brave mind than a hard hand.
William Shakespeare
