William Shakespeare
Let still woman take An elder than herself: so wears she to him, So sways she level in her husband's heart, For, boy, however we do praise ourselves, Our fancies are more giddy and unfirm, More longing, wavering, sooner to be lost and warn, Than women's are.
William Shakespeare

William Shakespeare
Though I am not naturally honest, I am sometimes so by chance.
William Shakespeare
