William Shakespeare
How soar sweet music is, when time is broke, and no proportion kept!
William Shakespeare
Thrust your head into the public street, to gaze on Christian fools with varnish'd faces.
William Shakespeare
Words without thoughts never to heaven go.
William Shakespeare
Dost thou think, because thou art virtuous, there shall be no more cakes and ale?

William Shakespeare
