Instead of weeping when a tragedy occurs in a songbird's life, it sings away its grief. I believe we could well follow the pattern of our feathered friends.

More quotes by William Shakespeare
Well, God's above all and there be souls must be saved, and there be souls must not be saved.
William Shakespeare
Though music oft hath such a charm to make bad good, and good provoke to harm.
William Shakespeare
All hoods make not monks.
William Shakespeare
I do repent but heaven hath pleas'd it so To punish me with this, and this with me, That I must be their scourge and minister. I will bestow him, and will answer well The death I gave him. So again good night. I must be cruel only to be kind. Thus bad begins and worse remains behind.
William Shakespeare
I hate ingratitude more in a man than lying, vainness, babbling, drunkenness, or any taint of vice whose strong corruption inhabits our frail blood.
William Shakespeare
The let-alone lies not in your good will.
William Shakespeare
I may neither choose who I would, nor refuse who I dislike so is the will of a living daughter curbed by the will of a dead father.
William Shakespeare
I do profess to be no less than I seem to serve him truly that will put me in trust: to love him that is honest to converse with him that is wise, and says little to fear judgment to fight when I cannot choose and to eat no fish.
William Shakespeare
O, how shall summer's honey breath hold out Against the wreckful siege of battering days, When rocks impregnable are not so stout, Nor gates of steel so strong, but Time decays?
William Shakespeare
I am but mad north-north-west. When the wind is southerly, I know a hawk from a handsaw.
William Shakespeare
I am ill at these numbers.
William Shakespeare
Keep time! How sour sweet music is when time is broke and no proportion kept! So is it in the music of men's lives. I wasted time and now doth time waste me.
William Shakespeare
For naught so vile that on the earth doth live But to the earth some special good doth give.
William Shakespeare
Love sees with the heart and not with mind.
William Shakespeare
Words pay no debts, give her deeds.
William Shakespeare
Forbear to judge, for we are sinners all.
William Shakespeare
Men are April when they woo, December when they wed. Maids are May when they are maids, but the sky changes when they are wives.
William Shakespeare
How long a time lies in one little word?
William Shakespeare
There is no love-broker in the world can more prevail in man's commendation with woman than report of valor.
William Shakespeare
If there were reason for these miseries, then into limits could I bind my woes. If the winds rages, doth not the sea wax mad, threat'ning the welkin with its big-swoll'n face? And wilt though have a reason for this coil? I am the sea. Hark how her sighs doth blow. She is the weeping welkin, I the earth.
William Shakespeare
