Our wills and fates do so contrary run, That our devices still are overthrown Our thoughts are ours, their ends none of our own.
William Shakespeare
If after every tempest come such calms, May the winds blow till they have waken'd death!
William Shakespeare
Have more than thou showest, Speak less than thou knowest, Lend less than thou owest.

Oh why rebuke you him that loves you so? / Lay breath so bitter on your bitter foe.
William Shakespeare
