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
What drink'st thou oft, instead of homage sweet, But poisoned flattery?
William Shakespeare
Marry, sir, they praise me and make an ass of me. Now my foes tell me plainly I am an ass so that by my foes, sir, I profit in the knowledge of myself, any by my friends I am abused so that, conclusions to be as kisses, if your four negatives make your two affirmatives, why then, the worse for my friends, and the better for my foes.
William Shakespeare
The color of the king doth come and go, Between his purpose and his conscience, Like heralds 'twixt two dreadful battles set: His passion is so ripe, it needs must break.
William Shakespeare
Make use of time, let not advantage slip.
William Shakespeare
See what a ready tongue suspicion hath!
William Shakespeare
If I for my opinion bleed, opinion shall be surgeon to my hurt, and keep me on the side where still I am.
William Shakespeare
As honour, love, obedience, troops of friends, / I must not look to have but, in their stead, / Curses, not loud but deep, mouth-honour, breath, / Which the poor heart would fain deny, and dare not (5.3.25-28).
William Shakespeare
But there is no such man for, brother, men Can counsel and speak comfort to that grief Which they themselves not feel but, tasting it, Their counsel turns to passion, which before Would give preceptial medicine to rage, Fetter strong madness in a silken thread, Charm ache with air and agony with words.
William Shakespeare
O madam, my old heart is cracked, it's cracked!
William Shakespeare
Dost thou love hawking? Thou hast hawks will soar Above the morning lark.
William Shakespeare
Some kinds of baseness are nobly undergone.
William Shakespeare
Cheerily to sea the signs of war advance: No king of England, if not king of France
William Shakespeare
Blood will have blood.
William Shakespeare
The curse of marriage That we can call these delicate creatures ours And not their appetites!
William Shakespeare
That which is now a horse, even with a thought The rack dislimms, and makes it indistinct As water is in water
William Shakespeare
One good deed dying tongueless Slaughters a thousand waiting upon that. Our praises are our wages.
William Shakespeare
He that hath the steerage of my course, Direct my sail.
William Shakespeare
O that my tongue were in the thunder's mouth! Then with passion would I shake the world.
William Shakespeare
Dost thou think, because thou art virtuous, there shall be no more cakes and ale?
William Shakespeare
Let every eye negotiate for itself and trust no agent.
William Shakespeare
