William Shakespeare
Fortune is painted blind, with a muffler afore her eyes, to signify to you that Fortune is blind.
William Shakespeare
Love moderately long love doth so too swift arrives as tardy as too slow.
William Shakespeare

I was adored once too.
William Shakespeare
Men's faults do seldom to themselves appear.

What is done cannot be now amended.
William Shakespeare
He that hath the steerage of my course, Direct my sail.
William Shakespeare
O Lord that lends me life, Lend me a heart replete with thankfulness!

Good name in man and woman is the immediate jewel of their souls.
