William Shakespeare
You see me here, you gods, a poor old man, As full of grief as age wretched in both.
William Shakespeare
A hundred thousand welcomes: I could weep, And I could laugh I am light and heavy: Welcome.
William Shakespeare
Things are often spoke and seldom meant.
William Shakespeare
Is this a vision? Is this a dream? Do I sleep?
William Shakespeare
You dull ass will not mend his pace with beating.
William Shakespeare
O all you host of heaven! O earth! What else? And shall I couple Hell?
