William Shakespeare

Yield not thy neck To fortunes yoke, but let thy dauntless mind Still ride in triumph over all mischance.
William Shakespeare
Love adds a precious seeing to the eye.
William Shakespeare
Let me have men about me that are fat... Yond Cassius has a lean and hungry look. He thinks too much: such men are dangerous.
