More quotes by William Shakespeare

William Shakespeare
If it be true that good wine needs no bush, 'tis true that a good play needs no epilogue.

Thus did I keep my person fresh and new, My presence, like a robe pontifical, Ne'er seen but wondered at, and so my state, Seldom but sumptuous, showed like a feast.
