William Shakespeare

William Shakespeare

William Shakespeare
Bell, book and candle shall not drive me back, When gold and silver becks me to come on.
William Shakespeare
Give every man thy ear, but few thy voice.
William Shakespeare
Be wise as thou art cruel, do not press My tongue-tied patience with too much disdain: Lest sorrow lend me words and words express, The manner of my pity-wanting pain.
William Shakespeare
For there's no motion That tends to vice in man, but I affirm It is the woman's part.
William Shakespeare
By the pricking of my thumbs, Something wicked this way comes.
William Shakespeare
Now, my masters, happy man be his dole, say I every man to his business.
William Shakespeare
