But I, that am not shaped for sportive tricks, Nor made to court an amorous looking-glass I, that am rudely stamped, and want love's majesty To strut before a wanton ambling nymph.

And simple truth miscalled simplicity
William Shakespeare
My love is as a fever, longing still.
William Shakespeare
O my good lord, that comfort comes too late, 'Tis like a pardon after execution. That gentle physic, given in time, had cured me But now I am past all comforts here but prayers.
William Shakespeare
Fear not, Cesario, take thy fortunes up. Be that thou know'st thou art and then thou art as great as that thou fear'st.
William Shakespeare

William Shakespeare
The world is grown so bad, That wrens make prey where eagles dare not perch.
William Shakespeare
What power is it which mounts my love so high, that makes me see, and cannot feed mine eye
William Shakespeare

By Heaven, my soul is purg'd from grudging hate And with my hand I seal my true heart's love
William Shakespeare
The clamorous owl that nightly hoots and wonders At our quaint spirits.
William Shakespeare
Small herbs have grace, great weeds do grow apace.
William Shakespeare
If thou remeber'st not the slightest folly that ever love did make thee run into, thou hast not lov'd
William Shakespeare
But we have reason to cool our raging motions, our carnal stings, our unbitted lusts whereof I take this that you call love to bea sect or scion.... It is merely a lust of the blood and a permission of the will.
William Shakespeare
If it be aught toward the general good, Set honor in one eye and death i' th' other, And I will look on both indifferently For let the gods so speed me as I love The name of honor more than I fear death.
William Shakespeare
