William Shakespeare
The poet's eye, in a fine frenzy rolling, doth glance from heaven to Earth, from Earth to heaven and as imagination bodies forth the forms of things unknown, the poet's pen turns them to shape, and gives to airy nothing a local habitation and a name such tricks hath strong imagination.
William Shakespeare
He that will have a cake out of the wheat must tarry the grinding.
William Shakespeare
'Tis better to be vile than vile esteemed
William Shakespeare
By Heaven, I love thee better than myself

William Shakespeare
By how much unexpected, by so much We must awake endeavour for defence For courage mounteth with occasion.
William Shakespeare
Eternity was in our lips and eyes, Bliss in our brows' bent none our parts so poor But was a race of heaven.
William Shakespeare
Man, proud man, drest in a little brief authority, most ignorant of what he's most assur d, glassy essence, like an angry ape, plays such fantastic tricks before high heaven, as make the angels weep.
William Shakespeare
Good hay, sweet hay, hath no fellow.
William Shakespeare
In the modesty of fearful duty, I read as much as from the rattling tongue of saucy and audacious eloquence.
William Shakespeare
Thus have I, Wall, my part discharged so And, being done, thus Wall away doth go.
William Shakespeare
