More quotes by William Shakespeare

William Shakespeare
O, I have suffered With those that I saw suffer!
William Shakespeare
Be merry you have cause, so have we all, of joy for our escape is much beyond our loss . . . . then wisely weigh our sorrow with our comfort.
William Shakespeare
Happy are they that hear their detractions, and can put them to mending.
William Shakespeare
Who are the violets now That strew the lap of the new-come spring?
