Away, you mouldy rogue, away!
William Shakespeare

William Shakespeare

William Shakespeare
All the perfumes of Arabia will not sweeten this little hand! Oh, oh, oh!
William Shakespeare
Blessed are the peacemakers on earth.
William Shakespeare
These flowers are like the pleasures of the world.
William Shakespeare
Ingrateful man with liquorish draughts, and morsels unctuous, greases his pure mind that from it all consideration slips.
William Shakespeare
Be wary then best safety lies in fear.
William Shakespeare
Taffeta phrases, silken terms precise, Three-piled hyperboles, spruce affection, Figures pedantical--these summer flies Have blown me full of maggot ostentation.
William Shakespeare
...lest too light winning make the prize light.
William Shakespeare
