William Shakespeare
A very ancient and fish-like smell.
William Shakespeare
Ere I could make thee open thy white hand, and clap thyself my love then didst thou utter, I am your's for ever!
William Shakespeare
Love goes toward love as schoolboys from their books, But love from love, toward school with heavy looks.

William Shakespeare
He's of the colour of the nutmeg. And of the heat of the ginger.... he is pure air and fire and the dull elements of earth and water never appear in him, but only in patient stillness while his rider mounts him he is indeed a horse, and all other jades you may call beasts.
William Shakespeare
I will not be sworn but love may transform me to an oyster but I'll take my oath on it, till he have made an oyster of me he shall never make me such a fool.
William Shakespeare
Her virtues, graced with external gifts, Do breed love's settled passions in my heart And like as rigour of tempestuous gusts Provokes the mightiest hulk against the tide, So am I driven by breath of her renown Either to suffer shipwreck or arrive Where I may have fruition of her love.
William Shakespeare
Is there no pity sitting in the clouds, That sees into the bottom of my grief?
William Shakespeare
Think'st thou it honourable for a noble man Still to remember wrongs?
William Shakespeare
Poise the cause in justice's equal scales, Whose beam stands sure, whose rightful cause prevails.
William Shakespeare
The heavenly-harness'd team Begins his golden progress in the east.
William Shakespeare
Fare thee well, king: sith thus thou wilt appear, Freedom lives hence, and banishment is here.
William Shakespeare
I am falser than vows made in wine.
William Shakespeare
A fool, a fool! I met a fool i' th' forest, A motley fool! a miserable world! As I do live by food, I met a fool Who laid him down and basked him in the sun And railed on Lady Fortune in good terms, In good set terms, and yet a motley fool.
William Shakespeare
And fearless minds climb soonest unto crowns.
William Shakespeare
I am the Prince of Wales and think not, Percy, To share with me in glory any more: Two stars keep not their motion in one sphere.
William Shakespeare
